Pros

The pay and benefits are decent. I like my job that I have now and my manager is amazing, but I need a change.

Cons

Overloaded with corporate greed and layers upon layers of micro-management. Inflexible with scheduling/time off so you feel treated like a number rather than a human. **You DO have options for time off, but most days have to be approved which seldom are available. Sick days are considered occurrences against you, yet they give you the time to take them. Covid has amplified new draconian rules and it is completely draining. That coupled with so many new CCTV cameras, you feel like you're under a microscope 24/7. My manager makes me feel appreciated for what I do, but I know others have it worse, so I sympathize.

Pros

Working at HP Hood for a short of amount of time was a blessing in disguise. The interview was fairly simple, as it went from a phone call screening to then an interview with the head IT admin. Once there, they connect you with every team in the building to make sure that you're situated properly. The people in the office are great, as they'll go out of their way to converse with you and are inclusive on top. The culture and work are very manageable and not overbearing.

Cons

The only con I can say is that you have to be in office 5x a week.
