Pros

Most people here that are executive and wannabe executive and below are generally nice and hardworking. If you have a problem with someone its just usually onesy or twosy. Investment in up and coming technologies in some areas

Cons

The executive leadership and those that have clear aspirations to be executives are some of the most disconnected, delusional, and uncaring leadership that I have ever experienced. No WFH. Downright archaic thinking especially giving the fact it wants to claim to be a data/tech company. It is clear promotions are not really merit based, but given by how much you drink the kool-aid of the executives or appear to be. I say this as someone who had positive reviews, but it was too clear on "how to make it to the top". A great lack in diversity. There are other ethnicities/racial groups than white and asian and I felt other groups are all but ignored when it came to hiring, promotions, and general visibility. To be fair many companies have this problem, but do not look to Corelogic to be different or better. No investment in training their employees, and that is quite a drawback for technical people who must stay aware of industry standards and common tools. Onboarding is horrid. I remember I had to beg someone from another team to help me get set up. Offboarding, down right un professional. I had to remind them about my last day, no exit interview. I had to deal with a disgruntled manager and team member who made my last days miserable. Mostly it was awkward and if HR had an official offboarding procedure and management was trained on it, it wouldve been less awkward. Does not seek reviews from people who report up to a given person, its popular to get reviews from managers peers but not their reports, which doesnt indicate on how well they manage. Poor communication from executives There are so many more, but honestly avoid this company, it just too obvious they do not care to not have a "factory mindset".

Pros

The pay is right at market value

Cons

- They are strongly against work from home, even during the covid. When a majority of the local workforce expressed concern over returning to the office prematurely, management said those concerned with returning office should look for employment elsewhere. We pair-program all day, sharing a desk, in an open office. - The company is requiring everyone use PTO during the weeks of thanksgiving, xmas, and new years. This will be all my PTO for the entire year.

Pros

Solid entry level salary in Mississippi. 16 day paid time off, accrued in 5 hour chunks every two weeks. 401k match up to half of 6% of the paycheck. Quarterly Stock purchase plan at 15% discount. Snacks available in break room. Amazing coworkers at same level.

Cons

Poor high level leadership. High rumor and office politic community. Legacy technology has a death grip on developers. No career growth as a tech employee. Constant lies from direct management. Inconsistent job responsibilities. Off shore development for "troublesome" tech. There are a few favorite teams that work with new technology, but are also mis managed by high leadership. Constant cutting of the fat and no growth for the teams, just the product. Pretty much only a worth while opportunity if in integrations, ports, or labs in Mississippi office in tech. No remote work policy even though COVID-19 proved we could do it as a whole. Developer turn over rate is high. Quality assurance is treated like second-class citizen, and relabeled their title as "software engineer" and depends on manager whether you will be a developer or QA. System operations are constantly being out sourced, turning gaining tools and access into support tickets that are troublesome. You get a double whammy of expectations to "do whatever the client asks" at a moment's notice and "upgrade the system to the latest and greatest" without proper road mapping of system upgrades. Change is seen as risky and actively discouraged. This includes refusing to add new testing frameworks, upgrading .NET versions, approaching cloud development with azure, creating microservice applications to help monolithic platforms, replacing current windows services with any form of proper micro service, replacing SQL stored procedures with testable code, etc. To simply put it.. It's just a job, not a career.
