Pros

work life balance can be good. managers do give you reasonable freedom. perks are good.

Cons

Some of the codebase is pretty old. Pace of development can be slow in those areas. It also means a lot of regressions so can get frustrating. If you end up in one of the less favored teams, management will keep changing its priorities to accommodate other teams leading to little ever really getting completed.

Pros

This role is flexible time wise. It provides a lot of down time within one shift. The supervisors were understanding about errors, and supportive when training. Very small amount of training required.

Cons

Have to be able to watch and listen two two television shows simultaneously.

Pros

The office building was nice and there are some great people that worked there.

Cons

The leadership was a bunch of men just trying to protect their own egos and line their own pockets. I never worked anywhere that felt as dismissive of women as TiVo.
