Micromanaged IT department

Recommend

Pros

Friendly people Nice work space A lot of social gatherings outside of work.

Cons

I felt that the IT department was/is being micromanaged. There are policies and procedures in place but management does not trust the employees to execute them. They are a little too hands on no matter how small the issue is. Technicians and Engineers can only do what they are told and are unable to implement any of their own ideas. Management is mostly comprised of old buddy system from Microstrategy.

Great place to work after college

Pros

Super friendly office, pretty much 0 deadlines as an SE, company outings and events, and super flexible on schedule and moving around work for life events. Health insurance is good, and office is right by the metro stop which makes commuting great if you ride it. There are a lot of very smart engineers here and its a good place to start a career in software.

Cons

401k match is pretty low, paternal leave is abysmal at 2 weeks.
