Pros

- A lot of opprotunity to learn - Solid work-life balance - Good software standards - Very smart engineering peers

Cons

- As of 2024, awkward scatter of employees in different locations with enforced and tracked 50% in-office attendance for non-remote (like why tho?) - Pains moving to internal software tooling/solutions

Pros

Wednesday Mornings are given back to employees. Office is good and theirs good health and fitness benefits.

Cons

50% time in office. Engineering technology in application development is a bit behind the times. This adds a lot of friction to the delivery process. If you are used to quick delivery and start-up environments, this will be a shock to the system.
