Wellington has the potential to be a great place to work, but it needs some massaging
Pros
The money and benefits are pretty good. The financial professionals are very good at what they do. They tend to hire very smart people, although some not so smart people sometimes make it in the door
Cons
Within IT/IS Wellington is VERY political. You can be a star performer in the eyes of the financial groups, but IT/IS doesn't seem to care. Senior management within IT/IS only care about their own personal agendas which doesn't really help the company achieve success. There isn't a singular goal to make Wellington great success. It's all about personal achievement to receiving that all important bonus. The cream of the crop does NOT float to the top within IT/IS, the whey does. The cream tends to sink to the bottom and curdle then leave. In order to advance within the organization, you need to think like a presidential candidate and campaign for your advancement with senior managers that typically have nothing to do with you. It's ridiculous.
