Crap!

Pros

Lots of lessons and growth in learning how to become more patient, manage stress, and deal with incompetent management, archaic processes, technology, and ideology. There are some good people here that are doing their best to get by while looking for something else. When everything sucks at least there are people to lean on and that will lean back.

Cons

Incompetent management at every level- very much a good ol' boys club. Rampant micromanagement, favoritism, sexism. This place is a mess. Just don't. You will regret it. Archaic process, lagging product, and the really good people usually move out within a few years after they get really proficient (but really tired) of trying to deal with all the garbage.
