Pros

* Great compensation (base + cash bonus + equity award), especially for more recent hires * Conveniently-located, recently-updated, well-protected office in the historic building * Small gift handouts from listing companies

Cons

* Toxic company culture and values with much finger-pointing and brown-nosing * Stale technology stack with not much automation and slowly-moving SDLC * High level of technical debt and significant production support load * Poor work-life balance with absolutely no telecommuting

Pros

Giant international corporation with unlimited resources. Multiple locations around the country and the globe with tons of jobs that are open for internal transfer (with some considerations). Generally high pay range.

Cons

Giant international corporations treat you as an unlimited resource. They use "Unlimited PTO" model for Sick and Vacation time, which I feel is a misnomer and a disingenuous concept as a whole. Unrealistic fixation on making employees use AI with no clear plan or direction on how it should happen.
