Cold cold place. The work area is a form of 'open concept' but that's where the openness stops. The management and other leadership likely wont even notice who you are or care to converse with you. If you want to have any input on any matters within the company then you probably should go work for a consulting firm or technology company that they regularly 'rub elbows' with.
On the technology side of things it seems as if it's a group of 'yes men' running the show. The current and future implementations are still following the IT rules from the 90's. The goal for the IT projects are to get something up and running at bare minimum costs (as if leadership's bonus rely on budget savings) while accumulating an astronomical amount of technical debt. Then leadership will sell the chance to address said debt after the project only for them to kick off the next big thing project. The IT turnover should hint to the people upstairs that there is something wrong in the area but yet the same antics still continue. The area is thin with resources so the common solution is to staff aug which of course costs much more for the resource to get up to speed and then are rarely able to properly complete their assigned project. When an intern is brought into the IT area they are directed to their seat and talked to at a bare minimum, they are likely never introduced to leadership higher than a supervisor.
If you are looking for an IT company that focuses on implementing the technology then I would avoid BSE at all costs.
