Pros

Progressive with lots of communities and employee resource groups. Company seems to care a lot about D&I efforts as they encourage one of the employee goals being related to D&I.

Cons

Not a lot of senior managers and above so each senior manager/delivery director ends up having 4+ direct reports. As a result, not enough one on ones/individual attention so there are many times where I don’t feel acknowledged or noticed for my hard work.

Pros

- Real client-facing technical work in regulated/FedRAMP environments; good exposure if compliance-heavy cloud is your lane. - Internal mobility exists on paper; managers may encourage internal candidates for promotions. - New management clearly understands their assignment and is saying the right things and taking initial steps that appear to be moving us towards a strong path forward.

Cons

- Promotion paths can be unstable; roles may get restructured mid-process, which makes career planning hard. - Management quality is uneven; promotion into management isn't always tied to demonstrated leadership, technical capability, or appropriate vision. - Limited structured professional development. - Compensation progression can be a friction point, including for internal moves. - Bonus payouts have come in far below target even for top performers, which has been rough.
