Pros

- Decent benefits for tenured employees - Commendable recent efforts for ESG, DEI, and Veterans Programs - Some employees genuinely work hard and want to better the business

Cons

- Management is incapable/unwilling to act on input from their subordinates - Numerous non-technical managers in positions that demand technical ability, and in some cases, can't even manage people - Mass outsourcing to India of positions that should be US-based - Zero leadership and cohesion behind/understanding of IT goals - Pointless RTO policy - No performance-based compensation bonus, same raise potential despite effort or adherence to expectations - Listed job responsibilities fall far short of actual duties - Bonus/profit share structure dependent on overall company performance, not deliverable metrics - Plenty of drones there just to collect a paycheck - Too many old white guys running the show

Pros

company truck, company gas, expense account

Cons

Coercive Non-Competes: Instead of retaining talent through fair pay and competent leadership, management uses overreaching non-compete agreements to trap their workforce. Seeing colleagues like Zane bogged down by these heavy-handed tactics shows a fundamental lack of respect for employees' career mobility. Pervasive Micromanagement: Leadership insists on controlling minor details, bottlenecking progress and alienating competent employees. The Sunk Cost Fallacy: Instead of learning from mistakes, senior leaders consistently double down on poor decisions, driven by an unwillingness to admit fault. The Peter Principle in Action: The executive team suffers from an overinflated sense of their own acumen, which barely masks a fundamental lack of competence. People have clearly been promoted to their level of incompetence.
