Pros

Firstly, the industry is constantly evolving and innovating, which means there are always exciting new projects to work on. Additionally, software companies often have a strong focus on employee development and growth, providing ample opportunities for training and advancement. The work is also highly collaborative, with teams working together to solve complex problems and create cutting-edge products. Finally, the tech industry as a whole tends to offer competitive salaries and benefits, making it a great choice for those looking to build a successful career.

Cons

Working in a software engineer company may have some drawbacks to consider. One of the biggest cons is the high level of competition within the industry. This can make it difficult to stand out and advance your career. Additionally, the fast-paced and constantly changing nature of the field can lead to high levels of stress and burnout. Long hours and tight deadlines are common, which can also take a toll on work-life balance. Finally, there may be a lack of diversity and inclusivity within the company culture, which can create a less welcoming and supportive environment for employees.

Pros

Good pay and benefits Flexible PTO RSU's

Cons

Company morale is low. The other recent reviews stating this are extremely accurate. Company culture has eroded and the company values don't seem to matter anymore. 'Winning Right' has become lip service. Senior leadership refuses to address the problems many departments are having with headcount and workload. They don't really care about the customer experience. RTO makes no sense when most of your team remains remote in the same role, a role in which you spend much of the time on calls with customers and meeting with other team members virtually. Not enough staff to support the RMS customer base and ticket counts have ballooned.
