Pros

None to specify so far.

Cons

I’ve been working here for the past 2 years. While the company offers stability and learning opportunities, career growth has felt limited in my experience. There is a high level of micromanagement, and salary increments tend to be modest. Leadership and communication from top management could be improved to create a more supportive and growth-oriented work environment.

Pros

Business side is smart and is superb at their product

Cons

The IT organization struggles with structural challenges that impact efficiency. The offshore-heavy model in India means US-based employees regularly work early hours to stay aligned, which is unsustainable long-term. The workforce is heavily weighted toward a high-headcount service model rather than investing in strong engineering talent — you need fewer, better engineers, not more bodies. Central tech functions are attempting to build platforms, but without a clear shared understanding of what a platform actually means, these initiatives remain incomplete. The result is heavy manual workarounds propping up half-finished solutions. Strategic direction shifts frequently, and ongoing layoff announcements make it difficult to plan or build momentum.
