Pros

Progressive company with a "go get em" attitude. Company is well funded and their main offices are pretty nice! They allow remote work and do well with collaboration and providing hardware for their engineers!

Cons

Management pushes solutions down to engineering for petty reasons (dynamodb is a buzzword and not something you use if you want to rely on lots of indexing). Expect to constantly be chasing your tail and questioning leadership's decisions. The whole UBA (universal benefits platform) is a mess/joke. After a while leadership brought in a couple (2) of yahoos from another department (who worked on a different technology with different/archaic) methodologies who proceeded to make everything worse. Lots of important people quit during my year here (tech leads, managers, etc) because they realized leadership just wouldn't listen/hear the issues. The system is a pile of unstable, unmaintainable, garbage. Expect a lot of corporate "horah" with little backing from corporate (the development offices that they rented for the UBA initiative were terrible with poor wifi, limited seating/desks, non-existant AC, it felt like working in an overcrowded incubator). Mind you this isn't the first attempt they've had at creating this UBA.. This was the 3rd attempt and it's failing just like the previous 2 did... Stay away from this company until they get their priorities figured out.

Pros

Working remotely. Great people in the department I work in. It’s great that they are strong in volunteering and give you time off to volunteer however, in many department so many days are blacked out to takeoff that sometimes you don’t even get to use it.

Cons

The company has changed so much. The new CEO Pam, speaks of employees like they’re not even human. It has been two years of wandering when you’re gonna get laid off and they tell you that as long as you’re a high functioning employee, you’re gonna be fine but the truth is some of the best employees I know have been laid off because their goal is to reduce Onshore employment and outsource more work to India.
