      A comically bad place to work

      Corporate it

      Pros

      > Option to telecommute > A few colleagues were nice > Average compensation That's about it.

      Cons

      > Bullying & badgering by senior IT management > Forced PTO (use or lose it!) > No raises for hard working staff > Treated as a rented mule, not as a person > Toxic work environment > HR turns a blind eye to all this In some scenarios I look back and find it amazing the way Sr. management bullied its staff - also the clicks within the group\backstabbing made things very unpleasant. I just feel sorry for the nice people who I left behind who have no other choice than to continue working here. Moved on, took a while to shake this place from my memories, now working with normal folks - refreshing.

      inconsistent management , but good for independent pro-active people

      Anonymous employee
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      I really liked that I was able to go about my work in the way I thought best (no micromanagement), but was able to turn to my teammates or manager when I needed advice or help. My manager was also very understanding about time off, and encouraged a good work-life balance.

      Cons

      There was very little open communication about how the business was doing, and what the strategy going forward was. While I was there, many people were laid off, and while that wouldn't necessarily be publicized ahead of time, there didn't always seem to be a justification for these layoffs - particularly when other people - who were already worked to the max - had to pick up the slack.
