I was regarded as a top performer until I resigned. The manner in which my exit was handled was very disappointing!

Business Outlook

Pros

Flexibility to manage your own time and use innovation to complete the job as you see fit.

Cons

Not really much comes to mind, except the fact that Ally has a large corporate structure, so I do not feel comfortable approaching management with new ideas.

Business Outlook

Pros

- Intelligent and capable team members - Easy access to executives and senior leadership - Can speak your mind - Casual/professional environment - Competitive salaries - Decent benefits

Cons

- Lack of planning - Lack of communication between teams and within organization - Too many processes and not enough awareness of the processes between teams - Take a HUGE pay cut when transitioning from contractor to FTE (at least in my position - 30k less net) - Poor orientation process. Basically here is your laptop and go - Very volatile environment - Constant change (typical of a new organization though) - Unreasonable timeline expectations from business/senior leadership (make decisions on when something needs to be complete rather than complete the analysis of how long it will take to be completed correctly. - Too many meetings about the same thing - Very little CEO presence in the organization - Slim career development strategy/training options
