Pros
- Seattle campus is beautiful - Empowered to take on challenging projects - Good benefits, especially if you have an IATAN card
Cons
The culture here is very transparent. If someone is angry with you or a project isn't going their way, they have no problem voicing that during a meeting in front of everyone or running to your manager. You need thick skin to work here. I have been yelled at and insulted a few times during the few months I've been here. And it works. If a stakeholder is angry or frustrated, we immediately jump into action, take back our recommendation, and fix it to their liking. We have to grin and bear it, not argue our point, and push our expertise to the side. We are looked at as a department where you can place your order and expect it done quickly despite reality. People do not accept "no" here. Everything is yes, and sometimes a miracle happens where they understand that some time is needed to get it done.
