Pros
Hybrid environment, need to go 2 days a week.
Cons
Working here has been quite challenging due to the lack of technical expertise. The Application Architect, for instance, doesn't seem to grasp the differences between unit tests, functional tests, integration tests, or testing frameworks. I've never seen him conduct a Root Cause Analysis (RCA) using Datadog,
The Production Owner/IT Director comes from a customer care background and isn't familiar with RCAs or Scrum methodologies. He often rely on guidance from the Vice President, who tends to approach situations more like a salesperson than a tech leader. The environment seems to favor those who talk without a clear understanding, rather than those who are genuinely working and contributing. If you're a professional looking to grow in your career, this might not be the right fit. The company culture feels more hierarchical, with a "master and slave" mentality. Even if the job market is tough, I'd recommend thinking twice before joining. It's important to be in a place that supports your professional growth and values your contributions.
