      Don't Make This a Career - Turnover is HIGH by Constant RIFs

      Pros

      Great working environment, excellent compensation.

      Cons

      The IT Department is no longer a place for career longevity. You can be hired today and then fired under the guise of a reduction in force the next. Severance package has changed, therefore, if by chance you are affected by a RIF after 20 years of service, you'll likely get only 4 - 6 weeks of severance, but I'm certain it will change again with the increase of RIFs. If you are looking for an environment to establish a solid career, this is NOT the place for you. But if you enjoy free trains in lieu of job security and excellent benefits this is the place for you. No career opportunities unless you are senior management, promotions aren't base on merit or work ethic but personality.
