Pros
- Extremely competent leadership throughout the Information Technology teams
- Intense technical interviewing process Keeps it that way; your colleagues will be on their game and will know their stuff, period
- Results-focused & politics plays little-to-no role among IT teams
- Regular performance evaluations; you are rewarded for exceptional work
- There is always something fun, cool and interesting to work on
- Scrum+Kanban enhances communication as well as team-focused planning, and keeps chaos and disorder to a minimum
- Super cool people to work with in general
Cons
- Located in Ladera Heights just east of Culver City, surrounding area can go from upscale to "hood" very quickly so walking to lunch requires a bit of caution
- Sometimes parking can get overcrowded if you come in too late
- You can feel a little isolated from the rest of the business if you work in tech
- Not unique to this business, but, there is the legendary sys admin vs. software developer tension--by virtue of the necessarily different viewpoints
