Pros

Don't join this company. Your life would be hell as mine. Too much work pressure. They give you random work without any proper requirements and keep on buzzing you to finish it and threaten you in calls. Your sleep cycle would be disturbed.

Cons

Zero collaboration. Old employees sucks, they are not approachable. Scrum master not aware of scrum and only job of his is to pressurize employees to work. You would be blamed unnecessarily always.

Pros

The people in non- upper management roles that work there are fantastic. Great sense of community onsite and the culture champions are consistently looking for ways to make work life better.

Cons

Very poor communication on the strategy for the business unit. Leadership publicly promotes innovation and new ideas to be presented but then those ideas are shot down or penalized in private by current upper management. The business unit leadership says that don't want excuses for project delays but will then decide to do 3 major layoffs in the first two quarters with no transition plan, no support for gap in resources and no expectations to delayed progress.
