Pros

Compensation was average to what the market in the area would support. Work/Live balance was better than average as I could take an hour or so for an appointment knowing that I could make up the time later.

Cons

Wolverine could write the book on micro-managing IT employees. Successes were never yours, but failures were. This bread a culture of fear of making mistakes. The Management Principles said "dare to risk what the company can tolerate". Unfortunately it is a zero tolerance policy most of the time, but it depended on who you were. Some could make mistakes and seem to suffer not repercussions. While others got the hammer dropped on them.

Pros

Pay, building, tuition reimbursement and people

Cons

Hiring, review system, organizational structure. After working at Wolverine for 5 years and having them pay for undergrad and a masters program I was not able to interview for jobs within the company. It was very much so about who you know rather than what you know. Lots of middle management with roles I'm not really sure would be considered critical. The job was very boring.
