Pros

Interesting projects (if you're lucky, though) Relatively new tech stack on the Frontend Corporate environment, not much stress (easy to "quite quit") Might be a good place if you into the "boaring" job with not much room/need for creativity.

Cons

The promotion process is a corporate hell-swamp that could take years. There are hard quotas and limits, set by top management, on everything starting on performance scores and ending up with the number of people that would be "allowed" to be on a shortlist, which does not guarantee anything. It's faster to leave the company for a year and come back to a higher position than to get promoted. The compensation is a joke now as it has fallen behind the market, which makes it even worst in combination with the capped amounts for the positions. Yearly salary gwowth at roughly 2% no matter how hard you've been grinding. All somewhat decent specialists are leaving the company within a year, once they figure out what a swamp it is. You're lucky if you get a project that gets some "visibility" to the top management otherwise you have zero chance to be "noticed" Crappy VDI solution (and the idea as a whole) is the shittiest thing that could have been done for the developers experience.
