Pros

Some workers within the tech team are hard workers.

Cons

- Mismanaged - No work life balance. - No career development given - Benefits are lackluster. - Pay is average and bonuses are split across the entire company so your performance plays no part! - Projects are rushed with little coding standards - Business is innovative but tech is far behind - Buzz words everywhere, you're a replaceable product - Tech leaders inspire you to want to leave instead of wanting to push forward - All tech is managed through one person, even if you wanted to innovate one person holds you back. - After the mergers the company went from downhill to a freefall of enjoyment.

Pros

Base cash compensation is above average. Work-life balance can be good as well, depending on the team.

Cons

Some teams are led by toxic managers, and your experience can become very difficult if you end up on one of those teams. Management may appear supportive on the surface, but periodic layoffs create ongoing uncertainty.
