Pros

The team I work for is very independent, not much group collaboration. No one is micro managing you, and you have a lot of freedom to accomplish the tasks assigned. Good pay, relaxed dress code, and a friendly environment.

Cons

I work in Perl, with code that is sometimes a decade old. It is very hard to understand the old code and some of the better programmers in the company are always tied up paying attention to someone else that is more important.

Pros

-Technological superior to most other companies with use of AI and promising future tech/programs -benefits and pay are very competetive -room for professional growth and advancement if you know how to work in a corporate environment -resume development and professional advancement

Cons

-leadership ideology doesnt match the company/CEOs mission statement or belief (company is said to be all for safety yet leaders get put in charge and quickly dismantle and lay off 3 quarters of the safety department) -Leadership changes structure to benefit themselves by having all support functions report to them instead of the CEO, this ensures all support functions take a back seat to production and financial gain to include their employees well being -Company restructured and reorganizes very often while showing no loyalty to the employees who work hard and want to stay, this leads to turn over of great employees.
