Pros

Good pay, and seems economically stable-ish. GREAT coworkers. Immediate managers are responsive and understanding, which is important for success within a team. Work-life balance is sustainable. EXCELLENT benefits.

Cons

Long term plans are very scattered with no clear vision, delegation of responsibilities, or ownership from upper leaders. Almost all innovations and tech-debt cleanup are pushed from the bottom up as grassroots initiatives, despite talk from the top stating that these endeavors are supported.

It's getting worse

Pros

Great people to work with, absolutely loved my manager

Cons

- Non-competitive pay - Benefits such as "flex days" and work from home stripped away - Excessive bureaucracy often slows down development - Software policy hinders innovation and slows down development - IT can and will uninstall software from your work computer without warning, even software that was once approved and in the software center. Guess what this does to development times
