Pros

You are employed and receiving a paycheck

Cons

Poorly compensated Does not follow ANY Software Development Industry Standards, although you are required to get your CSQA, ISTQB, CSM etc. (Just to make DSS look good on paper) Although there are some processes in place, they are weak and not followed Management does not respect team members and bullies them Management is weak and doesn't know how to deal with different personalities Management plays favorites, doesn't matter WHAT you know, it's WHO you know Unqualified management that sits in their office and does not interact with their team I've never seen more nepotism in my life (family & friends)

Pros

- Competitive pay - Caring CEO (to an extent) - Fully remote for some roles

Cons

- Lack of communication between teams - Lack of structure and planning - A LOT of older people who are stuck in their ways - HR is a joke and lack empathy - MAJOR lack of diversity (saw a number of PoC subjected to a lot of microagressions and bullying tactics) - Gotta be a brown noser to succeed - Some employees have too much pull when it comes to team dynamics - Underhanded tactics and unethical policies to meet quotas and make the numbers pretty - HDHP is the only option for employee insurance which is surprising since majority of the executives and team leads are rapidly aging. The OOP is astronomical if you go to the doctor regularly - Benefits are meh at best; be prepared to spend A LOT of money OOP - They say you can add family members to the plan at a set cost but they make you go through hell and back to add them. HR can be very facetious when trying to access certain benefits they don’t want to pay for even though they offer it due to cost concerns
