Pros

Great technology, good pay, work from home

Cons

Forget about work-life balance in engineering. This place will work you to death. Constant reviews, impossible deadlines, excessive workload, internal competition, nobody has time to help others so everyone is on their own, lots of project tools but nobody to standardize or train so everything is a mess. Managers blame their staff for everything.

Pros

Good pay and benefits Flexible PTO RSU's

Cons

Company morale is low. The other recent reviews stating this are extremely accurate. Company culture has eroded and the company values don't seem to matter anymore. 'Winning Right' has become lip service. Senior leadership refuses to address the problems many departments are having with headcount and workload. They don't really care about the customer experience. RTO makes no sense when most of your team remains remote in the same role, a role in which you spend much of the time on calls with customers and meeting with other team members virtually. Not enough staff to support the RMS customer base and ticket counts have ballooned.
