Pros

Teams are close with each other. When you’re behind, your team is willing to help. Salary and benefits is good. When in an emergency, the company is lenient on people going away for emergencies.

Cons

There is overtime, on top of the normal hours. Be expected to work most weekends and to be on an on call schedule. Deadlines are tight and many associates is too busy to reach out in an ample amount of time. Anyone who is a manager and above should have common sense of certain projects being done on time, as well as a work/home life balance. The job position is more than just the general description of the job. For the mandatory knowledge of programming languages, the software being used is a low code system. There shouldn’t be a need to be an expert of programming languages if the position is just a general engineer. That is what software developers are for.

Cons

There are still some areas where the company appears to be rebuilding trust and confidence Change is noticeable and appreciated, but some improvements are still in progress Feedback has clearly helped shape recent changes, and it will be good to see that progress continue
