Senior Engineer - has lots of pros and cons

Senior software engineer

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

- great teammates - feel as if my job is safe in current area to any downsizing - my team does work on latest technology like AWS (we were first in our unit to implement AWS) - never short of work on my team - recently my area has implemented a 9 day 80 hour schedule so i get every other friday off and its amazing

Cons

- business drives everything and decides what priorities are which is not an ideal model because we fall way behind on maintenance work - tech leading can be a death sentence to your technology growth unless you do something to control it. I have struggled to get my hand in the code because i am too busy with meetings or assisting my team on items - meetings... meetings.... meetings... oh right after lunch... meetings

Great place to work but always room for improvement

Senior software engineer

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

The mission, the comraderie, the feeling of belonging, the fail forward fast mentality.

Cons

The RTO policy is a bit restrictive as well, I'm used to it at this point but I'm concerned the restrictionwill stifle getting fresh talent in the future.
