Vantaggi
Manhattan office, convenient location, adequate salary.
Svantaggi
Main application looked like a software aggregation, big and slow; Daily tasks were rushed out but never gave developers the whole picture of the design/architecture; team members were just following daily instructions and acted like workhorses; Old and redundant codes scattered throughout; no one had time to optimize and the upper levels didn't care anyway, just wanted to get jobs done in a day or two; The top was a business man and was not technical and he didn't understand its application was in bad shape. Even customer complained repeatedly about data lagging performance but they blamed it on customers' servers.
