      Average working environment but huge gap in what they say culture is and what it actually is

      Pros

      Stable industry lead to (too) few firings. Nice facilities. Competitive wages for the area. Staff (not management) is pretty good.

      Cons

      Culture. They talk a lot about transparency and accountability but it's not implemented. Prayer at the holiday luncheon so if you're not deist/Christian prepare to have others' beliefs imposed on you. Shows Fox News on TVs at HQ. Corporate culture from surrounding companies now makes it a respect the chain of command sort of place. Gender bias/cronyism all over the place.

      Pros

      Good pay and benefits. Some great people. It's easy to make friends there. Great job security.

      Cons

      IT management is wasteful and non-technical. There are a lot of non-technical people in IT that are trying to do a somewhat technical job and they get paid more than many technical people who can actually understand and accomplish things. Very few young people and women are hired. Because nobody gets fired and technical competence is not rewarded, there are a lot of people who are not good at their jobs who get paid very well. If you aren't one of the them, it can get frustrating when you never get a promotion.
