Vantaggi

- great work life balance - will get promoted just by hanging around long enough - extremely stable - no layoffs ever - really great people - passionate, kind, enjoyable to work with - good products that actually serve customers and aren’t evil (not a given in tech :) ) - company genuinely seems to care about keeping employees happy - everyone stay for forever

Svantaggi

- mediocre pay with minimal opportunity for raises - hiring bar is low so there are lots of people who are bad at their jobs and who will be paid more than you and have a higher title simply because they’re older - said people create headaches and reduce opportunities to learn from others - location (far edge of Kansas suburbs, very far away from anywhere you want to be unless you are complete suburbanite) - astonishing lack of diversity. In my department of hundreds of people there was maybe one black person and very few women

Vantaggi

Good benefits and work life balance. It's a good culture and I've never worked at a place where your immediate peers are this helpful and pleasant to work with, even across teams and offices. If you want to just come in and do just what is required for your job and go home with the knowledge you have a stable job, this is the perfect place to work. I'd only recommend working here if you just want a job, but don't care about a career.

Svantaggi

There is poor career advancement, especially if you aren't male. Leadership does not care about leading people. The RTO has made working here less appealing. The excuse that you can't collaborate unless you are in the same building makes no sense when you work with people in 6 different countries. It is about control and appearances, all due to incredibly poor senior leadership strategies. The pay is also low and so is the quality of the software you work on. Leadership likes to talk quality, but they like fast and cheap. They will not support you in actual software quality nor implement changes to improve it. The same issues happen over and over without improvement.
