Pros

benefits at incredible, work life balance,salary is extremely competitive and grows The circumstances of my departure from the company does make me think that they are quietly cutting head count and top earners to replace them with fresh grads they can indoctrinate + AI. I was basically told as much in practically those exact words. BB prides it self on never having had an official "layoff" They have definitely been turning the screws to "optimize for efficiency" Perhaps this is the reason for so many other posts mentioning micromanagement. So could be hit or miss for individual contributors. I will say its pretty incredible that i see people celebrating 10-20-30 year anniversaries at BB. Could be me, worked under a manager who i jived with. I had an incredible boss for 3 years. When he retired, the person promoted in his place ended up being completely inadequate at person management. Took to long to realize the issues or notice that due to personal differences i was being undermined and setup to fail.

Cons

a million internally built, archaic, systems with tons of unhelpful documentation. Lots of "just have to know that" sort of things, from ticketing systems to self-rolled sql database. 3 then 4 and pretty sure now 5 days in the office, but with good amount of flexibility to work from home, as long as you meet the _quota_
