Pros

- Work life balance (kinda)

Cons

- Management isn't in touch with actual developers and even when they are, management always knows better than the people in the trenches. - Too many hands in the cookie jar. Nothing ever gets accomplished and when it does it typically isn't a great product. If engineers were valued more, as well as their opinions, great things would happen. - UI is typically blamed for a reason why a product isn't delivered, not product or services. That's a norm in the industry, however, the idea that a no-code solution would remedy this is crazy. There are more core issues at TA that need to be fixed. UI is the last domino to fall. - Pay isn't on par with the industry. Based on Cedar Rapids, IA salary(?).

Pros

great account management team. Great bosses. pension. decent benefits. managers allow flexibility.

Cons

the account managers are the only ones held accountable. other departments don't answer emails for weeks, don't do their jobs and no one in upper management cares. directly effects account managers so you get yelled at by clients and brokers a lot. don't get paid enough to do the job of the account manager and take on the other departments work.
