Pros

The corporate company provides equipment assistance such as telephones, headphones, work desks, etc.

Cons

Salaries are well below market. We cannot get bank promotions. There is no bonus system. They outsource to other companies and leave the employees alone

Pros

They definitely hold the funds to perform the "most efficient" insanity.

Cons

Careful boys, snakes in the grass. They'll spend a mil to save a buck, if your willing to play their games then get it.

Pros

Worked with some great engineers (until they all left!) Good work life balance

Cons

Management is poor, have a lot of other tasks nothing to do with management, it's not even their primary focus Management gatekeep opportunities for career advancement You'll advance depending on how close you are with your manager and if your manager likes you Felt like some managers did not understand their female employees, would push women more towards scrummaster and management roles and would not encourage or have any belief in women for senior engineer role. You'd see young lads that weren't as trustworthy go for it while long term female employees weren't getting the same feedback or opportunities Can get stuck under one manager and unable to move Low retention of employees - good people leaving all the time, and no great new senior experience coming in No loyalty for long term employees - leaving the company and returning in a few year time window will net you a better salary than staying for that time Poor benefits over covid - no covid relief days, no help with covid tax benefits, no christmas or summer perk bonuses in lieu of missed parties and events Use older technologies and slow to move on, and with a lot of in house tool alternatives it can feel like you're falling behind in your tech knowledge stack Told over and over that you can't find the culture anywhere else but once you go you realise you can, and that culture wasn't as great as you kept being told, other companies have more team building, and more focus on relationships and good place to work
