Avantages

There really aren't any, unless you have a family and like being the one eyed man in the land of the blind. Also, if you get in good with your manager, it's very easy to slip between the cracks and slack off.

Inconvénients

Hugely political, and managers are not very aware of who the good coders in the group are. Also, it's predominantly a marketing organization, so developers get stepped on. Also, it's heavily process oriented, but now we're trying to become more "agile". So now we have an "agile waterfall", which is just an awful awful idea. It just means that product managers can slack off far more.

Avantages

Good work, lots of AI experiments, AI innovation, latest tech stack, Co-workers are very co-operative and helpful. Most AI tools are still unlimited.

Inconvénients

Some teams are over-working due to smaller teams as a result of recent layoffs. Office perks (like catered food, snacks) are dwindling every quarter even though company wants every employee to be 3 days a week in office. Company wants 80 percent code to be generated by AI but no clear guideline how to achieve that.
