Pros

Talented and friendly coworkers who have an interest in promoting a productive, successful work environment. No qualms with engineers or technical product whatsoever.

Cons

Technology leadership is a dumpster fire. They don’t know they’re doing or how to add any real value to the company’s products. Managers will often throw subordinates under the bus in order to promote their own career agenda and often avoid taking responsibility or initiative for solving problems. This is actively harming the business and in my view, prevents the company from generating more revenue.

Pros

I've had some great managers

Cons

It is standard practice for the responsibilities of departed or terminated employees to be permanently absorbed by the remaining team members. These increased workloads are distributed indefinitely with no adjustment to compensation. While the company claims to value promoting from within, internal salary increases are strictly capped (often at 20%). This policy prevents promoted employees from reaching the actual market rate for their new title, creating a financial penalty for loyalty and internal growth.
