Pros

Travel discounts for all employees.

Cons

The technology is antiquated and difficult to maintain. There isn't an technological innovation mindset within the company. This shows both within the decade old code base that must be maintained and the lack of forward progress in applying new technologies. The approach to feature development is entirely top-down with little or no room for input or feedback at the lowest levels for engineers. There is also a huge gap between product development and product management. The engineering side rarely sees the larger picture. Minimal effort is made by the marketing/business strategy team to make sure the engineer at the bottom of the totem pole is made aware of the overall vision and direction.

Pros

Incredible benefits! Quality, affordable medical insurance, 401k, wellness reimbursement, travel reimbursement, plenty of PTO, etc. They have fresh food cooked daily for breakfast and lunch, available for purchase. They also have free food, such as yogurt cups, cheese sticks, and shelf-stable fruits available to all employees. The benefits keep many of us here. I will say, have had two supervisors so far, and they’ve each been great. Very understanding, yet motivating. I haven’t yet met a supervisor who didn’t value their supervisees.

Cons

The main digital platforms we use do not function efficiently, which makes a noticeable impact on our work. On a perfect day, you’ll still spend 8-12 minutes per hour waiting on load screens, but we have experienced days in which the sites were down for about 6 hours within an 8 hour day. I feel that our quarterly goals are not constructed with this in mind. Another major con is—like many places now—job security is an issue. AI is taking over the job of many employees, and while we’re told to embrace it, it’s difficult to do so when you could walk in any day and be told to pack your things.
