Prestige over practice

Pros

The firm’s strong reputation and market presence make it highly effective at attracting top-tier talent and fostering initial excitement. However, it seems to rely more on its prestige than on creating an environment that encourages long-term career growth, as many talented individuals ultimately seek opportunities elsewhere.

Cons

The culture at this organization is disappointing and highly non-meritocratic, with problematic leadership dynamics that trickle down from the top. Employees with the highest pay and influence are not delivering the strongest returns, which is a glaring issue for a firm in this industry. The technology infrastructure is severely outdated, lagging well behind competitors, making it difficult to stay competitive or efficient.

Pros

Smart and friendly coworkers, average compensation, good health insurance

Cons

Toxic and incompetent upper management filled with paper pushers who don't understand the first thing about the technologies and teams they're supposed to 'manage'. Forced RTO with management checking badge swipes. High pressure environment (god forbid you're allowed to be human and make a mistake), and little to no work-life balance. Upper management seems to like running every department with the bare minimum amount of staff, preferring skeleton crews, even for technology teams who are engineering and maintaining business-critical, revenue-generating applications
