Avantages
The office is nice, good events, good benefits.
Inconvénients
- No opportunities for hybrid/remote work even though most of my team wasn't even in Tempe. - Outside of sick days, there is little to no work-life balance - Spent most of my time pushing for better project organization because it was so all over the place, it regularly made it difficult to pick up new work, especially when first onboarding, leadership just expected you to magically finish work with nonexistent product requirements. - Little to no intentional collaboration between product and engineering - There is an absurd arrogance with SMEs that make it hard to ramp up on the tech stacks, mounds of outdated documentation. - Engineers prioritize job security over meaningful knowledge transfers. I don't blame them. Deadlines are fear-driven even though leadership denies it despite it being a reoccurring theme. I had to get another engineer outside of my team to give me an actually productive overview of the team's owned services. - Had little to no engagement from my product counterpart for months, which made for an isolating work experience outside of "have you finished this yet" - Too much micromanaging
