Cons

I am working on a core application! Last year too many people left, position did not get filled We are now doing the works of 3 or 4 people and yet no bonus, rise and any rewards. On top of that we are dealing with vindictive and narcissistic first line managers who wait for any opportunity to bully staff, dealing with borderline individuals/bipolar is so painful, this individual can ruin your day for no reason because of his ignorance, low IQ and lack of technical skills. Most of the people on this floor are having title Sr. Staff..., Sr Technical Product ..., Sr Technical Manager, but they are not technical, they are big talkers and not even understand what they need to know to perform their jobs. As a matter of fact, some of them either always on vacations or in the office and not moving they fingers. Instead of getting knowledge, they just take someone else credit. What is an easy tide? I am getting the rewards on someone else blood haha .. This is the most toxic culture, this makes me appreciate my old jobs more!

Pros

Remote work and good insurance, but not worth the abuse you have to undertake.

Cons

This is the worse company ever, there is no work life balance, we did not have holidays and even when trying to take PTO that I had earned, they made it look like we were taking advantage of the company. The paycheck is low and the culture is so toxic… stay away from these people.
