Pros

Benefits The grunt workers are good people. The people actually doing the work are all amazing and the only reason I gave 3 stars.

Cons

Mostly McKinsey and business people in senior technical leadership positions that have never delivered software. No understanding of what it's like to be a software engineers bc they haven't done the job. Software maintenance is neglected and under prioritized Engineers are under constant stress trying to keep production afloat while delivering on projects. Contractors are all offshore and 50% of them need constant babysitting.

Pros

The pay is market average, and the benefits are quite good. I love my peers. The vast majority of them are kind and talented people. I truly enjoyed my first several years with the company. Well past the honeymoon period for a new employer. And at the time, I recommended this place to anyone I knew looking for a job.

Cons

Management is a mess from the bottom up. The culture of the company has drastically changed over the last several years because of frequent retirements, layoffs, and reorganizations. Employees I know from across describe the same experience: the company has gone from outstanding culture to one that feels openly hostile to its employees. Management decisions are built like cudgels and enforced through all stick and no carrot.
