Pros

- Usually pretty good work/life balance for entry/mid-level devs - Flexible Work Hours - The cafeteria is decent. - I would only recommend working here as an intern/entry-level dev for a year or two to put on your resume or as a senior to coast until retirement.

Cons

- Salary is not competitive. - Very top-down management organization - In general, the process methodology is Scrum, but there has been more of a shift towards waterfall (up-front planning and significant focus on meeting deadlines). This can make for some unfortunate crunch times. - No career growth whatsoever. You are expected to fulfill the same role as when you were hired and promotions are almost unheard of barring special circumstances. - Very little feedback on work/career paths is given. - Lack of transparency from management and sometimes sister teams.

Pros

The best part of MI is the people in the trenches — the field engineers, techs, and specialists who show up, solve problems, and support each other even when the system around them doesn’t. The teamwork, the shared experience, and the professionalism of the technical staff are what keep the wheels turning. Those relationships are the real value.

Cons

Systemic issues repeat without meaningful correction, and workarounds often become the long‑term solution. Expertise doesn’t always translate into organizational change, which leads to a cycle of recurring problems and unnecessary rework. Administrative and process inconsistencies add friction that the technical teams end up absorbing.
