Pros
You get a paycheck. Maybe I will find a new job soon. I am looking.
Cons
I felt I had a moral imperative to post this review. Just stay away if you are a Software Engineer. It is the worst job I have ever had. You have been warned. The previous group of developers have all left that should tell you something. They tell you they follow an Agile development process which is a lie. We have been in firefighting mode since I joined this organization. I don't expect anything to change. Software Engineers are basically fall guys. The deployment process is a crap shoot 70% of deployments fail and have to be fixed. You basically have to troubleshoot every deployment to see what they missed. The process is totally manual. The architecture team will change the API you are using and deploy it bringing down the server. The client blames you. The power goes out. The client blames you. The user's don't even look at the requirements when testing. They see something they want and they enter a bug. It doesn't matter that it wasn't in the requirements and is a enhancement. It is reported as a bug. They have said I quote "We expect zero bugs before we accept the software". Enhancements are counted as bugs so unless you can read minds you are doomed to failure. If they have a database problem, you are blamed. Developers have to fix database issues because DBAs won't come in on the weekends. When the production database was rolled back to the integration database so they would be in sync. The process broke the applications since the DBAs don't write migration scripts to run with the changes implemented during development. It was a train wreck. The development team got blamed of course and also had to fix it. No testing was done just roll the production database into integration and sift through the wreckage.
