Pros

There have been a lot of changes in the last 12 months. We're changing everything about how we build software, for the better IMO. It came at the right time for me, I'm being challenged much more than I used to be. While not perfect, engineering concerns now take a much higher priority than before. We're moving away from a .net walled garden to a multi-platform distributed stack - some node.js, rails, also java in addition to C#. Also getting our build & deploy house in order, working towards continuous delivery.

Cons

Change doesn't come easy, I guess. We seem to make progress in waves, but still get held up with manual processes, particularly in ops. But it is getting better. Puppet and Chef are starting to make life easier there.

Pros

Good salary and location. Company I growing fast and stock is recovering back.

Cons

All the managers and directors have been there for almost 8-10 years and have not updated their technology skill set. They don't let their employees think on their own, but they influence how to get the task done and micromanage them, line-by-line code review. There is no recognition or encouragement for the hard work or for the innovation. The foody awards are only given to sales and marketing people and very rarely given to engineering team. The CTO is trying to build his own empire by firing current employees who disagrees with him and bringing his own people from his ex-company, so on one wants to propose any changes or disagrees with him.
