Pros: The hybrid work model helps some. You get a good amount of autonomy as a Software Engineer, which is nice. When things aren't crazy, the team environment is pretty solid.
Cons: Deadlines in the sports betting tech space can be brutal, especially around major events. Expect longer hours during those crunch times; it's not a consistent 40-hour week. Sometimes, I feel like there's an expectation to be always on.
Advice to Management: Try to manage project timelines better to avoid constant crunch. More focus on preventing burnout for engineering roles, especially during peak daily fantasy sports seasons.
