Pros
Good work/life balance which is uncommon with IT. Current team and direct manager is one of the primary reasons I have stayed.
Cons
Health insurance is a joke, you pay industry averages but are told you have to use their doctors, other benefits are pretty good. When I started here over 5 years ago this was a great place to work. Lots of room for advancement, and you looked forward to being part of something great. Since the merger when we inherited Scott and Whites CIO, the only thing he cares about is making sure he doesn't look bad at any cost, and by no means will he take responsibility for how the system looks. He has groomed his management team to perform witch hunts for why 10-15 year old equipment failed. They are attempting to become an ITIL shop, and failing at the expense of the business. Security team is out of control by placing so much red tape nothing can get done. This results in a lot of strain on other teams because the business doesn't see Security, they see IT as a whole and blame us for why things take so long.
