Pros

Some of the people working here are incredibly talented and genuinely lovely

Cons

Almost every technical team is understaffed as more people have left than have been hired. Nothing meaningful has been done to combat this so now for every one technical person you have about 5 non-technical people breathing down their neck. No opportunities for progression (management hire their friends instead of promoting people internally) Almost no actual coding (you spend all day fighting fires because the company is in "keep the lights on" mode) Concerning attitude and comments from senior management, such as "it’s fine that critical people are leaving because we can always bring in more contractors temporarily” Being expected to log every minute of your day (including logging the time spent logging your time)

Pros

Great team culture, lots of support and opportunities to grow. Developers are encouraged to step into projects or technologies they don't much about and build their knowledge and skills. Innovation events throughout the year create space for dev-led initiatives.

Cons

The projects are complex, with often shifting priorities and sometimes poorly defined business processes to build upon. It makes the role challenging, and developers can often play the role of business analysts as part of the discovery.
