Pros
The people at Element are all great. No complaints at all on that end. Workloads can very week to week but generally strikes a strong work life balance. It seems like their role within the parent company is going to grow over the coming years, and they are making an attempt to modernize the tech stack to incorporate more modern tools and create a better developer experience. Management is willing to give people of all kinds of background opportunities, with several currently on staff taking unique routes to their current roles.
Cons
Parent company loves bureaucracy and uses a workplace culture model that I personally find to be obnoxious. There might not be the greatest room for upward mobility, and depending on your role you could be stuck with hours daily of menial tasks even as a more technical team member. The current tech stack is quite out of date. In general, the developer experience is a decade or more behind the modern experience.
