Pros

Used to be a great place to work.

Cons

Citizens Bank is in the final phase of outsourcing Mainframe, Storage, Midrange and Wintel to IBM Global. Bridge Calls are like listening to a foreign shortwave radio station. Low Moral. Upper management has no clue how efficient the internal team was. Business Knowledge lost. Hopefully Van Saun pays attention during their next outage. IBM Global has no clue how to mange wire. I predict an extended wire outage would wake them up. With the proactive work that is required to keep it health it's only a matter of time until there's an outage.

Pros

Decent amount of Vacation Time

Cons

Completely sales focused while expecting all employees to take care of multiple operational tasks throughout day. Do not care about their employees at all.
