Seniority counts, talent not so much

Software developer

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

I was given very little work to do, so the job was easy, and I had plenty of time to plan starting a business without work getting in the way.

Cons

Boring, mediocre employees. Outdated and antiquated technology. Fiefdoms of senior employees whose talent seemed to be in having been there a long time rather than actual skills or intellect made the job annoying. Too much cronyism.

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Good life balance, competetive compensation, 401k matching

Cons

Corporate management, revolving door with direct reports creates a lack of attention and you feel like you are starting over every year. You will not advance without a degree. Education is greater than experience and how well you do your job.
