Pros
they do get some cool projects.
Kontras
After multiple quarters/years of poor business performance, no leader has accepted responsibility and instead opts to seek layoffs and increased financial pressure on teams, projects and emerging services. Introba runs like a big machine with too many corporate parts that don't provide any value to the production staff - they continually apply top-down pressure on staff to improve financial performance/profitability, while squeezing project budgets, increasing overhead costs and expecting staff to cover overhead duties out of pocket. To succeed and grow within the organization, it is expected that unpaid overtime hours will be the norm - for years - until you find a way to secure a corporate job with zero responsibilities, amass enough projects to start a pyramid scheme, or push the work onto those below you. I don't doubt this is unique, just worth stating there is no model for successful and healthy team management considering the ever-evolving corporate schemes within this newly formed merged entity. Unfortunately there is also a dwindling focus on technical comprehension. Lots of talk and highly paid corporate staff pushing 'work-life balance' but this is impossible given the way the business is lead and run. Overall, disappointing leadership and corporate decision-making and the company is so far removed from the company and culture from 4+ years ago.
