Pros

The pay is outrageously high. A lot of work is centered on "hot" tech: cloud computing, AI, CI/CD, latest software versions. It's a great resume builder. It's very team specific, but collaboration can be great up to the director level.

Cons

PIP culture is destroying this company. Because PIPs happen twice a year, two to four weeks per year are wasted on performance management work. Project timelines are not adjusted to reflect this. Most ICs Senior and higher worked extended hours due to the DevOps requirements of the job. My hair actually fell out due to work induced stress. That's never happened to me before. Senior leadership is out of touch with the average employee experience.
