Pros

You'll be given ample time to accustom to their processes. People willing to help you out Excellent Environment

Cons

They demand accountability: if you don't deliver escalations and deadlines you are screwed. The software is a nightmare to develop in. By far the most complex, convoluted environment I have developed in. You will be expected to be QA, DEV, and know multiple products/languages.

Pros

Nine years of complex engineering challenges and professional growth. Strong camaraderie with talented colleagues across various engineering teams. Opportunities to work on high-impact projects and scalable infrastructure. Gained significant experience in complex system architecture and troubleshooting.

Cons

Abrupt end to a nine-year tenure without adequate transition or transparency. Heavy reliance on an aging, legacy tech stack that hinders innovation. Contradictory AI strategy: leadership mandates aggressive adoption while refusing to fund the necessary compute and tools for teams to actually implement it. Extreme short-term focus on EPS maximization at the direct expense of long-term stability and product health.
