At Home reviews

I was in the IT Department and watched it go downhill. There is a huge problem with management hiring their friends from their previous employer. Because they are all friends no one will gainsay the other for fear of upsetting them (or who knows why). So you as an employee have no where to go with issues. It is so bad at this point that there are probably more people in a management role than there are people to manage. They have gone off shore for a lot of their development work and it shows in the quality of the applications. If anyone has read the core values of the company in IT, they either do not know what they mean or feel they do not apply. There is a definite emphasis on rewarding those who "play the game" and "suck up to the boss" than retaining the good employees with the strong work ethic and knowledge base. The CIO is either oblivious to the issues in the department or does not care. HR was pretty non-existent by the time I left, so there is no real option to reach out there with serious issues either. Bottom line is IT is toxic at the moment and is not even close to improving and it is all management based.

Unrealistic goals and tasks. Extremely high turnover. Never enough staff to actually do what needed to be done. Puts way to much emphasis on getting credit cards and perks. The stores are old and there are many leaks, rats, mold and the break room is absolutely disgusting. Be prepared to clean human waste off of the bathroom walls and plunge toilets.
