Pros

- free bus to office - 2 hour break.

Cons

- The management is pretending they knew agile methodology. No scrum masters in any team. no one knew about the real objective of each ceremonies of agile scrum and no one knew the manifesto to start with. - no standards, low quality of product. every deployment has an issue. - product is built like for a thesis of under grads - unrealistic goal. They base their top priority on highly escalated items. - process is revolving around support team concept and not in software development life cycle. - upper management is very inexperience in people management or proper lining up of resourcing. - Full of politics. - Not good for fresh graduates, not the up-to-stream line of work you expect. - Be aware of the management as they can easily destroy you when they dislike you. They favor those people they like. - The software development life cycle completes for over a month for maintenance activity. "too long." - No definitive and effective performance matix to evaluate people. They just base it on your recent and unforgettable mistakes. - Roles are too fluid. They practice lateral positions. Scope is blurr and ineffective. - No structure for any teams. only support has foundation of structure.

Pros

Hybrid role, I like my new boss, good learning experiene, nice office.

Cons

Hybrid is 1 day at home 4 in. They did bait and switch. Offered free healthcare then started to charge and make you pay your 6k out of pocket in HSA. Then the next you they took away bonuses for freight forwarding. So I'm 2 years in naking more but bringing home less. They do not respect workers and dont want work live balances. They are putting the horse behind cart being built. No one knows what they are doing in FF. IT fixes something and creates more problems. Former CEO was involved with Epstien and is still a contractor with the company. Hopefully no more layoffs will happen.
