Pros

The everyday, front line workers are great to work with. These front line people are genuinely good people. You spend at least 40 hours a week with your coworkers, and the coworkers here are great! The company has good benefits, from vision, dental, health, 401k, employee assistance programs, etc. The pay is decent, but could definitely be better. There is typically a one-time bonus each March. The company is rather flexible with schedules if you have appointments, kid activities or need to be out of the office.

Cons

Management is not trustworthy. They waffle on their decisions. They can't keep deadlines or promises. Management does not listen to the ideas from anyone NOT in a management position. They refuse to see the inefficiencies in the out-dated processes and procedures. Because of this they are bleeding cash/expenses, have unnecessary levels of management and are bloated with inefficiencies everywhere. There are double standards between management and front line employees. Management can push deadlines multiple times, not get things done that have been promised for ages. Management has no accountability. Yet front line employees are held to standards that can be unattainable at times. There is an attitude at this company of "that's how it's always been done", and it is tough to overcome.

Pros

Great company with lots of problems to solve in IT. There's always room for you to grow, new problems to solve, and they are generally just a good place to work. Hybrid work environment is great as well.

Cons

Non-industry-standard titles for IT employees, and I feel like salaries might be just a touch below industry standards as well.

Pros

Competitive pay and good benefits

Cons

Way too much going and l everything is a priority. When concerns are brought up as management is struggling to stay above water daily due to leading multiple teams, having a dozen or more priorities and being in back to back meetings every day, the concerns get brushed off and manager is told to figure it out. Lack of long term departmental vision from Director and constant shift in direction. Director does not care about team members and when concerns brought up from team members through the manager to Director, they get brushed off. So much restructuring going on constantly and leades get replaced every few years due to that. Concerns about more outsourcing down the road as new 3rd party company is starting to take a major application and moving data to their data centers. New major solutions get picked without looking at multiple vendors and any research. Director has a tyrannical leadership style and shuts down conversations and suggestions from management. Director only cares about his image to his peers and people above him and does not care about people reporting to him or people that his managers lead. Management and individual contributors morale is low due to above reasons. Not a good long term place to work.
