Pros
Hy-Vee's engineering organization is relatively new, switching from outsourcing work almost 2 years ago to bringing everything in-house. With that comes a lot of opportunities, but also some drawbacks. - Most teams are working with modern tech stacks (React 16, ES6, React Native, etc) - Lots of talented engineers are working hard to develop the culture - Great amenities at the Technology Center in Grimes - Flexible working hours - 401k plan is great (+ 1/2 of 6% contribution match after vesting period) - Competitive salaries and PTO - Profit sharing bonus (generally 3-6% yearly)
Cons
- Remote work is acceptable sometimes, but not always encouraged - Upper management can be slow to make decisions, leading to delays - R&D is often viewed as an expense versus a revenue driver - No open-sourced code - Some managers have a lot on their plate - could be better about delegating
