Pros

Receptive to policies favoring work/life balance. Friendly coworkers willing to lend support. Very technology driven. Small in numbers so you get to know almost everyone in the company.

Cons

Not all managers practice the spirit of the policies. Caste system strictly enforced regarding career development. Limited revenue sources and more limited innovations. Not all groups "play to win"...some "play not to lose".

Pros

- Great team from department head down - Collaboration is encouraged - Self-starter culture with good room for side projects - "See something, say something" approach allows questioning methodology without a feeling of personal attacks or "dumb questions" and enables team members to support each other in a safe environment - Work from home

Cons

- Executive leadership does not know what they want - Consistent turnover in C-Suite leads to departments acting like small internal companies rather than part of a larger system - Limited permission access for team members means that any absence or time-off can lead to a backlog of deployments
