Vantaggi

Great benefits, few talented people, free soda.

Svantaggi

Legacy and proprietary garbage will ruin your day and your desire to live as you count the hours in your little chicken coop/cubicle. For goodness' sake, they still use ClearCase! Java based stack is proprietary with SOAP suck-vices ruling the roost. There are rumors of a better stack in the works but it also is proprietary. Also, svc control is non-existent and any random doofus can call your code without anyone the wiser until you get pulled into troubleshooting live issues overnight. Morons with their tiny little fiefdoms will block you at every turn. Worst of all are the tinpot QA people who will blame you first to ensure that their lack of testing ability doesn't come up when yet another live bug comes up. This place is where know-nothing failures and H1B indentured servants come to lose their soul. Stay the heck away unless you have no talent or desire to grow. Goodbye eNay, I made sure the door didn't hit me on my posterior on the way out.

Vantaggi

Good work, lots of AI experiments, AI innovation, latest tech stack, Co-workers are very co-operative and helpful. Most AI tools are still unlimited.

Svantaggi

Some teams are over-working due to smaller teams as a result of recent layoffs. Office perks (like catered food, snacks) are dwindling every quarter even though company wants every employee to be 3 days a week in office. Company wants 80 percent code to be generated by AI but no clear guideline how to achieve that.
