Pros
- Real client-facing technical work in regulated/FedRAMP environments; good exposure if compliance-heavy cloud is your lane.
- Internal mobility exists on paper; managers may encourage internal candidates for promotions.
- New management clearly understands their assignment and is saying the right things and taking initial steps that appear to be moving us towards a strong path forward.
Cons
- Promotion paths can be unstable; roles may get restructured mid-process, which makes career planning hard.
- Management quality is uneven; promotion into management isn't always tied to demonstrated leadership, technical capability, or appropriate vision.
- Limited structured professional development.
- Compensation progression can be a friction point, including for internal moves.
- Bonus payouts have come in far below target even for top performers, which has been rough.
