Cons
-Inter-Departmental communication is lacking -PSCU fails to pay a competitive wage for positions within IT and app development -new online product development is rushed and the product testing on average is incomplete when the product is released for our clients' and members' use. -In addition the Product documentation and training necessary to help PSCU support our clients is lacking when the product is released. -The product development process isn't standardized so every group involved in Application development and Implementations are not being held to a consistent level of quality, and this process needs a Lessons Learned applied -company ticket database is very clunky and user unfriendly. Needs major overhaul or replacement to vastly increase efficiency. -Overtime is not allowed in many areas, and can make things difficult when working within a small group -More work and shorter turn-around SLAs are being placed upon employees, creating heightened and undue stress.
