Some extraordinarily bright engineers. Very stimulating and complicated place if you're highly-intelligent. Good work/life balance for certain IC's, especially outside of tech or on "favored" platforms. Upper management shows a clear desire to break down the silos maintained between the SVP to director level.
Inverse relationship between competence and rank. Engineers and lower-middle management are overextended. The culture among upper-middle management is arrogant, dishonest, political, and incompetent, with sub-zero interest in best practices. Low-level managers continuously scramble to get results by working around their chain of command. Horrendous tech-debt and unhappy customers. Desperately in need of emboldened Product outside of application teams and UX across the board. They're trying to pretend to be a tech company without compromising on the "know-nothing" culture of banking and management consulting. External candidates, especially from banking and management consulting, are favored over more technically qualified internal candidates. This is exacerbated for leadership roles. If you're technical and don't live in Brazil or India, you have no future here.
