Pros

Standardization, community outreach programs, snack kiosk in break room, there are a few really talented IT veterans that I enjoyed working with, casual dress

Cons

Below industry and regional pay, poor work/life balance, no chance for being promoted from within, inexperienced IT managers hire based on certs and not actual knowledge, they hired someone who blatanly lied on their resume because they liked their personality and the rest of IT has to support, mentor and pick up that guy's slack, micomanaging and seagull managers are the norm, contractors have little chance of being brought on full time, Tech Center facility is infested with roaches and in a dangerous area and the HVAC never works, no training, no mentoring, no knowledge share, products are deployed to the associates without telling Support or even teaching them how to support them, frontline Support reps have no industry knowledge causing ticket churn and cannot resolve anything, your bonus is based on management's discretion ... hope you are good at kissing butt

Pros

None, I would say remote work but it’s very toxic.

Cons

Poor leadership (manager and director), poor communication, poor training, unrealistic m expectations, micromanagement, no SOPs, lack of structure, FLSA violations, no upfront disclosure of what role is, stingy management. People outside of HR are great. In HR? They’re happy to lay people off and talk about it so casually during meetings. Think “it’s our yearly layoffs” and joking about catching people “slipping”. No opportunities for growth despite saying there was during interviews. Interview and reality are worlds apart. No diversity. Severe control issues. No new people have been hired in over 3 years yet multiple people have left so people are burnout. One person handles all of one process alone and management thinks that’s ok. For reference the same process takes 10-11 associates in the same sized org. I can go on. Stay away!!!
