      IT Leadership cannot get it right

      Pros

      Great people at the individual contributor level.

      Cons

      It's amateur hour at the leadership level. The CIO lacks vision and clarity. The person leading Infrastructure has no clear strategy and takes daily orders from the CIO. The network goes down almost every day and the IT team is on service restoration calls during the off hours daily.

      Awful Experience - can I give it zero stars?

      Pros

      Weekends and holidays away from the culture (cult)

      Cons

      Breathtaking level of dishonesty, incompetence and inappropriate behavior without any productive initiatives. No moral compass. Poor systems. Petty, vindictive people. The recent positive reviews on this site are not real. Nobody I know agrees with those comments.
