Pros

Getty offers solid work life balance.

Cons

Engineering management was dead set on old ways and it hurt them tremendously on the solution front. Most of their principal engineers have been there for 15+ years with zero work diversity across all of them. They basically peter principled all the junior engineers into senior roles over decades.

Pros

WFH, good overall culture. Good people.

Cons

Leadership has been slow to stay current and modern in the workplace. The business is straddled with debt from a pervious investment company that had bought Getty and gutted it. Future is uncertain.
