Pros

you get to see with some good new technologies like hadoop, cassandra, chef.

Cons

the infrastructure is very chaotic and outdated, they have a lot of dead technologies that they are trying to kill. They just started with automation so certain environments are still maintained manually. Everything happens very slowly, they dont have root ssh access because ldap is not properly synced with Active Directory and the spin of virtual machines happens through libvirt+cobbler+kickstart with an awful lot of manual steps and no live migration.

Pros

Burnout from 17 years of working long hours including evenings and weekends. I have worked 110 hour weeks and several concurrent 100+ hour weeks. I have a strong work ethic and will always go above/beyond what is required of me and take on additional responsibilities outside my role.

Cons

Health issues related to burnout. I have to do a better job at work/life balance, actually take PTO and disconnect. When I would take PTO, I would still attend calls and respond to emails as I felt it my responsibility to serve my customers.
