Vantaggi
Brand name, good bonuses. Able to take 6am calls from home.
Svantaggi
No culture. Old technology. Terrible senior/middle management. Terrible products. Shaky acquisitions. Zero innovation. Offshoring everything to India. Little concept of product development, basic budgeting, or rudimentary technology concepts. Entire company is inundated with endless amounts of red tape and paperwork after their Facebook debacle. (all while supposedly switching to Agile Development?) It was like being sent back in-time to 1990. Their new "next gen" product IR Insight is a complete disaster thanks to the leadership on the project. They spent 3 years and millions of dollars to have a legacy team, build a legacy product, with legacy technology. Nobody is held accountable because the former Reuters employees cover for each other. This is a stock-exchange, pretending to be a regular company, pretending to be a technology company.
