Pros

Good pay and benefits. Some engineers and some middle management are trying to do the right thing. It's possible that senior management will eventually address the major problems, but it's going to take a major wake-up call across the org.

Cons

Not a high-functioning organization: - Much dysfunction between dev, ops, product, etc. - A lot of established silos which makes fixing the problems difficult. - Very high tech debt - developing new features with any confidence on timelines or ensuring quality is difficult. A good number of employees are not helpful to moving stuff in the right direction - either not making it better, or actively making it worse. Not enough competent technical leadership. Senior business leadership does not inspire confidence.

Pros

The people are the best part - talented, collaborative peers who care about doing the right thing for clients. The role offers meaningful client exposure, complex problem solving and strong growth in cross functional communication and influence.

Cons

Leadership effectiveness and alignment have been a recurring challenge for the past few years. Communication can feel inconsistent, and key decisions are sometimes shared late, after they are effectively final. There is a strong emphasis on being proactive and client first, but leadership does not always model that same urgency and follow through. As a result, teams sometimes make more headway by collaborating directly with each other rather than relying on leadership channels, and clearer ownership and alignment at the top would reduce challenges and improve execution.
