Pros

- Monterey HQ is a pretty nice and well kept building. - Monterey is a very beautiful area with amazing weather - Employee lounge area with fitness center and pool table - A few company sponsored events per year - Generally very nice co-workers - Very easy interview process with no technical portion (could be seen as a pro or con)

Cons

- Poor management - Only those that are close with management get recognized and promoted - Very poor Quality Assurance personnel. They have little to no knowledge of technology - Developers are treated as second class citizens in relation to the business side - The network is so locked down that it decreases developer productivity. - Projects are started and then abandoned quite often - Logging number of hours spent on each ticket. Nearly impossible to be accurate when there are a lot of little things without a ticket or helping out teammates. - Most policies are only enforced when management feels like enforcing them. - Working remote is looked down upon - No clear path to career growth. Annual goals are made and never followed up on. - Semi-professional attire that only some employees follow - IT management has little to no technical knowledge, so IT employees fool them often. - Minimal BA support with spotty requirements. - Some employees are on call multiple days per week

Pros

Flexible schedule depending on your supervisor

Cons

Micromanaging is ridiculous. Seems like the people that slack the most get catered to. The people that work hard end up getting stuck with more claims and picking up the slack for the underachievers.

Pros

The atmosphere amongst employees is like a family. Very friendly coworkers and overall courteous customers.

Cons

When I started I was told that the company was on the rise and had turned in a positive direction. There was supposedly an open-door policy so that everyone could speak their minds. Once I started I found that this was all fluff. The workload was insanely high and that was saying something because my previous place of employment was exhausting but seemed easy compared to what I was diving into. The customer support aspect was lacking, the technical practices were years behind, and there was practically no leadership. Leadership was not open to new ideas and seemed to not have a good grasp on what was going on within the department. Simple solutions to many of our issues went unheard. I stuck around thinking I could make some changes but progress was slow and instead we were constantly trying to clean-up avoidable messes rather than improve. At the time of my departure I was dealing with health issues and a family crisis. My manager did not seem interested in working with me or understanding my situation. I almost felt intimidated, as if there was no support for me in my time of need. Needless to say my family crisis prevented me from giving my full effort and the lack of understanding and flexibility lead me to resign. In the end it was best for the company and myself. My family life became non-existent while I worked here as the job never really stopped at 5:00.
