Pros

There were very few pros to working here. The campus was nice, but I was reprimanded more than once for leaving my desk during my lunch to walk around. After that I mainly just sat in my cube 10 hours a day. Where I sat you couldn't even tell if the sun was shining or if it was raining.

Cons

This was one of the worst work environments I can possibly imagine. The hours were long, there was frequent and continuous turnover at all levels of the company. I had 5 managers in 2 years there. The micro management was stifiling and depressing. Some of the managers seemed to particularly enjoy bullying their employees and did everything they could to diminish them. There were more managers than staffers in my department which meant that everyone had task lists that were excessive and unacheivable. If you have family or kids, don't expect to see them much because they seem to want you there all the time. This place is unpredictable, unstable and the managers are demeaning and often just cruel. The turnover is high, unfortunately the worst of the people are the ones that stick around.

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.
