Pros

GREAT people who work here. My last manager, I would follow across burning coals for, as well as the staff. On-Site Gym. Close to all kinds of public transportation.

Cons

I wouldnt even know where to start. Transparency here is scarce. We were shown a presentation in January about how much was going to be invested in upgrading everything here, just to have the whole department outsourced a few months later. A few months prior to that, 500 people were let go without warning, in the middle of the day during lunch. There are SO many titles here, it'll make your head spin. Supervisor, Manager, Senior Manager, Director, Senior Director, Managing Director....and none of these people respond to anyone who isnt in their department, or doesnt have a title themselves. There's no reason to have a "Manager" of 3 people. They increased the health premiums..for their own insurance...for their own employees. That's unheard of for employees of a healthplan to pay MORE than some of the people they provide services for. Silo'd EVERYTHING. There's no collaboration between departments and departments that SHOULD be under the same management, arent. Level 1-3 IT Support all have different Directors? Ridiculous. They DO NOT promote from within, which is NUTS. They dont pay well compared to the market either.
