Pros

Fun people. Common shared vision. Is doing good things for the american wage earner. Was in the right place at the right time.

Cons

Lack of adequate investment into business services platforms. Constant pursuit of "the big breakthrough." Inadequate management support of smart people who know what needs to done. Abusive senior leadership that chooses to engage in tirades.

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
