Pros

The benefits are amazing, and the pay is very high for IT work. As a company, the employee appreciation is good.

Cons

The management in place does not communicate well (the IT org), and does not treat its employees well. Recent changes have almost destroyed the culture that made this a fun place to work. Instead it has introduced so many layers of management, and so many processes that no one know how to do anything.
