Pros

I'm required to supply at least five words for Pros.

Cons

Spent months accomplishing a comprehensive list of unfinished projects due to their process of needing approval to do anything. Need to write a sql query to test, request permission first. Need to test a batch file, request permission first. Etc, etc.

Pros

There are a number of bright new minds coming in to our team every month. I work with some genuinely wonderful people.

Cons

There is a strong disconnect between the quality of our deliverables and the direction that sets our direction. We have developers on our team that have tasks assigned to them that they are unable to complete due to policy, and there is a culture of preventing communication or prohibiting criticism or redress of difficulties in doing our jobs. Essentially, we're fired if we speak up, and we're fired if we're not performing, and there's a steady stream of contractors that almost keeps up with the churn. Nobody on our team has met with their direct report in over a month, and there haven't been one-on-one's scheduled in the last year.

Pros

It used to be a good company not anymore. Their IT department is heartless! They do not care about their employees. They will use you and push you until you burn out and quit.

Cons

They will be nice to your face and tell you what a great job you’re doing! Then they will fire you the next day! With no remorse!
