Pros

The working people are great.

Cons

Too many managers, directors, and VPs. Incompetent (lack of IT experience/lack of business knowledge) managers/directors too often get promoted when there's a lack of progress. A culture that all projects succeed (even the failed ones) to keep the bonuses and promotions flowing...pat my back, I'll pat yours. Very discouraging environment for the real workers who get stepped on by their boss to move up.

Pros

Company is a start up in the NYS medicaid field, so there is lots of opportunity for growth. Pay is a pro. New office space.

Cons

Lack of good leadership. The job you applied for may not be the job you add up performing. Lack of communication. Unprofessional work environment. Company does not know NYS healthcare regulations. 1-2 workers quit almost weekly. Lack of training. Inconsistent.

Pros

Pays decent depending on your department, convenient and central location, cafeteria and gym are great..easy to move up and around.

Cons

This place looks good on the outside but once you finally get inside, everything isn't what you expect. Management is awful. No work life balance. There is no flexibility. Working from home is discouraged. It feel like a prison, cameras watching you everywhere. Everything is a fire drill. No sense of planning and executing effectively. Some departments are Better than others. There is no privacy. It's very uncomfortable. You have to go to stairs to get privacy, even the stair case has cameras. This is not corporate America bc everyone is treated like a child. High turnover. Everyone that was hired within the last year are already searching for other jobs. There are so many unhappy people but they stick around for the money.
