Hostile IT department

Business Outlook

Pros

HQ location is good for public transportation. Some good people to work with, but they are not appreciated.

Cons

The work environment in IT is very hostile. People go out of their way to make others look incompetent, in order to make themselves look better. There is very little team-work.

Pros

Decent pay and benefits but that's about it.

Cons

If you want a job that is going to suck the life right out of you look no further! After spending numberous years here and still doing the same job I was hired to do, I left. (no advancement opportunities) The hours suck, 4:30pm to 3am with split days off and if you work this horrible night shift you get treated like crap. If you work the day shift you could get away with murder. Very hostile work environment, favortism galore, and the company violates the Union contract left and right but guess what? The union does nothing for you!
