Pros

Many options for lunch at Tysons mall. Need to wrte someting to meet word requirement.

Cons

As software engineer, I dont report to a engineering manager but to product owner who is a non technical person. prduct owner is responsible for my quarterly reviews where he rates my ability to do my job (which he does not understand) and my bonus and promotion are dependent on this person. Me and othr software enginers I knw feel insulted most of time! We all looking to leave.

Thank you for sharing your feedback. Employee engagement and happiness are top priorities that we are actively working on. We are committed to improving leadership communication across the organization. We know that we need to make some changes to build better collaboration between our people and our teams, and are in the process to do just that with enhancement to certain processes we use to run our business. As a matrixed organization, we have a cross-section of technical and business focused Product Owners, as well as technical Mangers deployed across our teams. Product Owners have responsibility for articulating why we’re investing in specific areas and the jobs to be done. Our technical managers lead teams through the “how” or implementation as well as responsible for helping our software engineers with their career growth and development. Our employees are some of the most talented in the industry and your advice to management will not go unnoticed. Our leadership team cares deeply about how our employees feel and the frustration that you express through this review is something that we take very seriously. Although not every change will happen overnight or have an impact overnight, as a team, we will make great strides to positively impact the work environment. Thank you for your post - caring enough to provide this feedback is an important catalyst to our continued improvement.

Pros

Good knowledge base and friendly culture. Everyone in my team is talented and helpful. It's a great starting point as a junior software engineer.

Cons

Even though the culture is called "Agile", it's still slow on the process and administration.

Pros

Good place to start the job. Lots of opportunity in every team. Good initial pay to start with. Nice people to work with.

Cons

Very less benefits, compared to other companies. No stocks, really !Lot's of legacy stuff hanging in there. Not a lot of big data teams and processing. Bosses want to be impressed/amazed.
