Pros

Competitive compensation relative to the scope of work Benefits are reasonable, though trending downward recently Strong presence of talented, intelligent, and dedicated people Limited growth and career development opportunities

Cons

New executive leadership lacks sufficient domain understanding and context Accountability is unclear across leadership layers The company is at a critical inflection point Heavy reliance on offshoring while internal knowledge is being diluted Aggressive cost-cutting without corresponding strategic reinvestment Overall direction feels unclear due to mounting technical debt, while leadership pursues AI narratives and acquisitions instead of foundational fixes

Pros

-Great Healthcare benefits -Great people -Great work/life balance

Cons

-It takes entirely too long to get promoted and there's no real solidified pathway for it. They have a checklist of things you need to be proficient in and you do them, but really you're doing next level work/responsibility at the same pay you've been at for a long time. It's almost like you're being dangled a carrot but the goal post is moving back each time. -Internal processes are slow and organizational changes happen so frequently much its hard to keep up with while the reasoning doesn't always make sense -You'll be moved into a different role, team or manager without any prior discussion
