Pros

Employees care about what they work on. Most people who work here, actually want to want to work here. Relaxed environment There's a push for the use of newer technology

Cons

Many of the engineers aren't the best coders. A lot of crappy code is lying around. Architects rarely help architect code, they spend most of their time working on new tools. Old architecture code is prevalent and frustrating.

Pros

- Great team from department head down - Collaboration is encouraged - Self-starter culture with good room for side projects - "See something, say something" approach allows questioning methodology without a feeling of personal attacks or "dumb questions" and enables team members to support each other in a safe environment - Work from home

Cons

- Executive leadership does not know what they want - Consistent turnover in C-Suite leads to departments acting like small internal companies rather than part of a larger system - Limited permission access for team members means that any absence or time-off can lead to a backlog of deployments
