Pros

It was a steady job.

Cons

Not like it used to be. Agile at this company means squeezing every drop of blood they can get out of their employees. Constant push back when doing project planning on the amount of work expected, and the difficulty assigned to the work. Hiring 100s of new offshore contractors and letting go folks who understand the work and process to save a buck.

Pros

- Valuable to have a job in this market, and somewhere that historically pays a market rate - unlimited PTO for fulltime

Cons

- New CEO is something...concerning. Workforce reduction, replacing C-suite with former pals from previous companies, huge push on AI without the subsequent reassurance that our jobs won't be replaced. Seems like the goal is for all of us to train AI to do our jobs before getting let go. Really tone deaf when us little people have livlihoods on the line.
