Pros

Work itself isn’t technically complex. The tooling is decent.

Cons

Office politics here are unreal. You are rewarded for optics, not contributions. People steal credit for others work. Lot of energy spent on coddling leadership. Performance management process if opaque and based on how well you play politics. Challenging the status quo is strongly discouraged. Management gaslights associates by saying one thing and meaning the complete opposite.

Pros

Learn a lot during your stay Lots of opportunity for ownership

Cons

Every 6 months your job is on the line with stack ranked perf management. Performance management is not just about doing good work, but you need to be political as well. Fakeness and influence seeking is rewarded. Retaliation common
