Pluspunten

If you're lucky, you get to work on interesting and engaging projects. Good colleagues, good work/life balance, freedom to make project technology decisions and tools (mostly). Highly ethical work culture. Values and differences are respected, little to no discrimination here. Options are available to move between teams, but highly subject to business need and availability.

Minpunten

Backend stack is primarily Java. It's trying to be a tech company, but it really is a systems integration and consulting company. If you're unlucky, and you're not vocal, you get stuck in projects/tasks that are boring. Also, if you're not based near HQ, you are sidelined from major and interesting projects (i.e. politics). A lot of us-vs-them scenarios going on. Often have to prove our worth to the "other side" first before work can come in. Lack of trust becomes a self-fulfilling prophecy.
