Pros

Its easy to get a job there, interview process are a normal process (sometimes a small test like data entry or maybe excel test) and then an interview with no tricky questions, normal stuff like "tell me last issue you had with a colleague and how you sort it out", previous experience, why you are the perfect candidate...

Cons

Human resources department is a total mafia. Also very incompetent (for instance leaving an employee out of a selection process for a new position because the human resources agent forgot his CV in her drawer for days!). Also, many process that are usuless and a lost of time, like for example daily team meetings where most of the days nothing new is said but it has to be done, just in case someone comes to check. Also in some areas if you want to be promoted you need to laugh your managers jokes more than do a good job. I have seen brilliant people doing a great job and being agents for years until another company gives them the opportunity they should have, while people with no experience and an average performance that was chatting with the manager every day and going to the social events would be promoted in no time. Some of the positions and very low paid

Pros

Great place to work in tandem with other professionals in your trade, always had a feeling of "family" working alongside my peers. We come together when times are tough, this is very rewarding,

Cons

The current economic and geopolitical spectrum have been proving a challenge to this industry as a whole, thankfully we are a resilient outfit with the best people at the helm.

Pros

It is possible to make a difference if you are determined enough. Many engineers work hard and most try.

Cons

The company has a ton of tech debt that it recognized, but is not being addressed. Management controls the time, scope and so quality is falling. The people they have hired lack fundamentals understanding of software development practices. The company often will make decisions to save small amounts of money with their facilities and tools they give to employees without understanding the opportunity cost that was lost. Overtime is required. You can't work here if you want to have a family or keep your family from hating you. Title inflation is real. Many people are actually performing one level down from their stated title and those that are not are only not failing due to putting in crazy hours. Middle management wont stickup for their people to ensure they are not burning out. They see it happening multiple times in front of them and they do nothing.
