Pros

The IT department is full of really cool people who are great to interact and work with. I have a lot of friends who also happen to be co-workers. Management is organized in a way that lets each team get work done the way that works best for them. We have rules and expectations to meet of course, but we have a lot of latitude afforded us as IT teams. When it comes down to it though, to me, a job is only as good as the people you interact with every day, and in this area, CHG works very hard to employ people who will contribute to making this company a better place to work. When I go home from work, I don't feel like I've just run the gauntlet. I'm able to be home with my family and have a good attitude because my day hasn't been torturous.

Cons

All companies have their share of problems. We are currently working through a transition to a new development process which is causing some stress and frustration. I consider this, however, to be a part of the growing process for any healthy company. I think it would be worse to hang on to old traditions if there is a way to be better. Being completely hones, I have a tough time seeing the negative about CHG because of so much positive. It's kind of like that friend who bites his fingernails, but who is reliable, kind, loyal, and fun to be around, so you overlook the fact that he bites his nails to the point that you don't even notice it any more. I don't really have any complaints because I feel like this job has been much better than any other position I've held at any other company. I hope to continue to work here for years to come.

Pros

CHG has been an incredible place to work for the last decade. I have been provided many opportunities to grow and contribute in new ways, There are many thrilling business problems to solve and challenges that keep me engaged and excited to come to work each day. I love the culture, the people I get to work with, the flexibility, the rewarding and meaningful work, and what we are building together.

Cons

I'd love to see a higher 401K match and maybe sabbaticals every 10 years.

Pros

Ability to work from home. OK pay. Mostly great people to work with.

Cons

Used to be a company that never laid people off. Now it seems that every month, some group has layoffs. We are being told that AI won't replace any people, yet people are being laid off and not replaced. Promotions from within are rare. VPs are hired from outside the company. Culture has changed. Bad behavior is tolerated if that person gives good results for the bottom line. Leaders can push to have people in other departments demoted or fired. Many leaders only pay lip service to Work/Life balance. I often take my computer with me on my days off so I can jump on and take care of things. I frequently answer emails and phone calls on days off. Lots of pressure to come into the office to work, even if the rest of your team isn't there. Messaging from management is confusing. We are told that CHG is gaining market share in a difficult market and then told that CHG isn't meeting its goals, so raises will be very small and the bonuses won't be that great. But somehow CHG is doing really well. Skip level 1:1 are a waste of time. I've figured out that if I just get whoever I'm talking to talking about their stuff, I don't actually have to say anything. If I do manage to bring up a concern or ask a question, I'm told that I'm making an interesting point, but I don't get any further information or answers. Basically, CHG has become just like any other corporation.
