      Pros

      • Exposure to large-scale AWS and Kubernetes environments • Ability to implement Zero Trust policies and strengthen cloud security • Meaningful technical challenges • Opportunities to take ownership of critical systems

      Cons

      • Unrealistic expectations paired with insufficient leadership support • Engineering decisions often driven by program pressure rather than sound technical strategy • Chronic communication gaps between management and technical teams • Recognition lagged far behind the level of responsibility carried • Retention incentives were offered, but core structural and cultural issues remained unchanged
