Pros

The company allows a lot of interesting technical challenges and technical expertise is very much appreciated by other coworkers. Company pays a good salary.

Cons

Significant share of management does have the technical insight nor do they seek advice to make decisions about which approach serves the business goal most. Questionable management skills: It is a common practice within management to assume that every problem in the project plan can be solved by overtime requests.

Pros

Decent starting salary, good benefits, generous PTO

Cons

1% raises forever. Last promotion I got to Principal had no raise but a bump in bonus percentage. Now they are giving kids 8-12% raises and they have less than 5 yrs. Once you hit about 5 yrs you will get the 1% a yr and be pigeon holed into a specific job. Then good luck trying to change.
