Pros

- Good for beginners in technology roles. Great place to learn and transition from college setup to corporate structure. - Good benefits in the area.

Cons

- If you are more than 2 years into your technical journey, stay away from this company. - Not a good place for career growth. The only way to progress in this company is for some one above to leave their position and it opens up. - Mediocre people and management who just want to do the bare minimum. - Too much redtape or approvals to get a simple thing done. - They dont embrace technology changes in the market, they act only when something is going out of license. - Compliance over Innovation- lots of compliance restrictions that curbs innovation. I understand compliance is important, but , dang god the things that are stuffed in this compliance makes me wonder sometimes, what am i doing here!!!!

Pros

Work from home, 401k match up to 6% (plus they contribute a separate amount each year), HSA employer contributions

Cons

Work heavily depends on your manager and team. I have had many managers since I started and the culture has shifted from a small, specialty company, to more of a large corporate structure. It used to be very flat and you felt connected to upper management, now it feels more like a firm hierarchy that you have little understanding with.
