Diverse Software Company

Senior software developer

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

There are lots of teams doing very diverse things. Some teams are doing really cutting edge work while some are doing old fashioned maintenance type work. There are plenty of opportunities for career development if you take the initiative. The culture and benefits are good. Good vacation policy. Flex work schedule is also beneficial. Leadership is good and focused on company growth and also employee development.

Cons

Being a very large firm, its easy to stagnate if you are not focused on career development.

Slow-moving, highly inefficient

Senior software engineer

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Good Compensation Good work-life balance Good vacation policy

Cons

Too much bureaucracy Too slow to respond Too much process. Engineers are complacent and don't think outside the box (my experience for the past 2 years) No career growth. People promoted based on seniority and not competency Management seems to think that throwing people at a problem always solves it and does not care about if the people have the correct skillsets for solving that issue. Few such people in a position of responsibility just derails or sidetracks the projects and breeds incompetency.

Many good people with an unclear direction

Senior software developer

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Good salary and freedom to develop your career if you are working on the right projects. Good opportunities to work in different locations and travel if one likes it.

Cons

Can get stuck for many years in the same project working with old technologies if located in a small office. Small offices do not share a proportionate amount of perks as big offices.
