Pros
Decent pay Good benefits Many great co-workers Good place to add to your work experience while looking for a step up if you stay on contract.
Cons
Managers live and work in another state and only involve themselves to demand overtime when poorly planned projects are in distress. Misguided and poorly implemented switch from waterfall SDLC to Scrum leaves all old and new projects unplanned, poorly staffed, and disorganized. Demands to meet unrealistic deadlines mean no innovation, efficiency, or job satisfaction. Umpqua offers no training, performance feedback, or interest in your future. Company culture is disconnected from the reality of work in EIM. No accountability, many seat fillers waiting for retirement create more work and drama for good employees.
