Pros

None. There really are no Pros working in IT at Athene. It is the most messed up IT department I have ever working in in over 20 years of experience.

Cons

IT has the worst leadership I have ever experienced, especially and specifically the “PMO”. Extremely toxic environment. I am not writing this as a disgruntled ex employee. I just got fed up and moved on to a bigger and better position. Trying to save you the pain of even going there.

Pros

In the department I was in we were supposed to have "flex time" - up to 4 hours a week that we can use for doc appt and such - then make up that time later in the week. Good Location

Cons

Dept felt very micro managed, but had a very large lack of communication from the direct dept manager and team lead. No wiggle room on "tardies". So if you logged into your system 1 minute late, you received a Tardy even if you were to stay a minute late at the end of the shift Pay seemed to be tremendously less than other annuity companyies for this type of job. Like a couple thousand less. Manditory OT never ending. Started in dept in June 2014 and still on it thru March 2015 and there was no talk of it ending soon as the department was still extremely out of standard. Felt as if there really was no work life balance. No "fun" in department. Only time we had a food day or anything for birthdays was if it was planned by a member of the team. This idea of "birthday treats" or a "celebration committee" was discussed with mgmt and seemed to be unimportant. However, coming from other companies that did this sort of thing, it seemed to motivate the team a bit, and made people feel a bit more appreciated.

Pros

There is an expensive cafeteria onsite

Cons

Leadership does not care about employees. When asked about higher compensation and benfits during a company an exec said "you are not chained to your desk, you are welcome to leave"
