Software Engineer: Blind leading the blind

Business Outlook

Pros

- Little to no actual work is required of you - Beer every where to numb your sorrows - Plenty of outings and trips and excursions to make you forget that you don't really matter - Unlimited sick days!! You still need to be "working" from home but yeah! You can call in sick at any time!!

Cons

- the buffoonery starts from the top down - the product (non) road map changes every day - expect to be interrupted with something urgent that needs to be done right now only to have it ignored after you completed it - career ladder is clearly defined and often repeated but has its rungs thoroughly greased with a giant ape throwing barrels at you - the management is considered a joke by the entire senior engineering team - the department has no real foresight or plan - the entire engineering team, especially the ones that's been there the longest is just waiting to cash in their options and leave - you are give 3 weeks of time off but are heavily suggested to take those weeks during the company designated weeks which effectively only gives you one week off
