Pros

Generally they don't overwork you, and you get plenty of space to finish your work depending on what team you're on.

Cons

There's not a great deal of sophistication or quality to the software they write, with virtually no telemetry or observability. Unit tests were uncommon, there wasn't really an attempt at CI/CD, and no real push to raise the bar from the software engineering side. Lower level management didn't have the skills to recognize these issues either.

Pros

WFH policy and great coworkers.

Cons

Role eliminated while executives and higher-ups spend ridiculous amounts of money on travel to "conferences", while transitioning the team to all contract/external employees to alleviate "budgeting" costs. Leaders continue to appease to higher-ups and C-level executives without a care or understanding of current team dynamics to protect themselves in a cutthroat and toxic environment filled with corporate politics. 0 growth for internal designers at below market salaries (20-25%) and below average benefits- when mentioned to leaders, profits are increasing YOY, yet the discussion becomes a "let's circle back" while 10+ contractors are immediately brought on board.
