Pros

If you are lazy, behind the times technically, don't want accountability, a lack of any modicum of process doesn't bother you & you want to roam the halls at the new buildings instead of focused work..LPL is the place for you!

Cons

Turnover in technology is the highest i've ever seen or heard of unless a failing company. CIO is a sales guy, not a delivery one. Offshore has taken over in lieu of strong technical management so the only thing lower than quality is delivery capabilities. Architecture...there is none. One big house of cards with DOL efforts piling on another stack

Pros

Great pay and getting OT pay. Awesome team of SMs and RTEs who felt like family and we all wanted to see each other succeed. I was exposed so a lot of situations which strengthened my skill set. Learned the SAFe model and it looks great on resumes. I personally had a great boss, bosses boss, and RTEs.

Cons

Executive leadership is ruining the culture. Many of the amazing Directors, AVPs and RTEs left due to the poor Executive leadership who do NOT know a single thing about Agile principles. Releases are 1x/mo so you have to work one Saturday a month which can sometimes be longer than a normal workday. Release Mgmt team is very difficult to work with and can be very disrespectful. They don’t hide it and it’s accepted. Execs killed remote work.
