Horrible.

Pros

Some of the people here are excellent individuals that I respect and admire.

Cons

I think that there is a toxic culture, inexperienced middle management, politics across the board, lots of finger pointing and playing the blame game when things don't go as planned. I'd even go so far as to say certain individuals within the organization could be classified as sociopaths.

A sorry state of affairs

Pros

Stable company, good benefits, lots of smart and hard-working team members.

Cons

Employees are micro managed. Performance evaluations are based on stack rankings and that means someone has to be in the bottom 10% and managed out. There is a high cost to churn.

Micromanage and not diverse

Pros

Excellent benefits. Stable company

Cons

It was not until I found work elsewhere with another large company that I realized how they do not hire many minorities. I am not a minority. Micromanagement is the norm. A lot of IT department is going offshore. I ran for my life. I am not an older employee but they tend to lay off those with many years with the company. Very difficult to watch this happen. Always thought of my parents when I saw someone with 25+ years lose their job.
