Pros

Gainshare is a great benefit and usually results in decent bonuses. 2022 was not particularly great though. 401k match is 6%, which is higher than normal. I like most of my coworkers and my boss. Career development opportunities are decent.

Cons

Lack of resources for projects. Unrealistic timelines for projects. There are far too many meetings. I barely have enough time to do my actual work. There is too much bureaucracy in IT. It is extremely hard to get things done with all the convoluted processes in-place for submitting requests. Teams are too isolated and do not work together well. One team might tell you one thing and another one will tell you something that completely contradicts what the other team said.

Pros

Work from home, Ok opportunities to learn more but opportunities are becoming slim.

Cons

Between Micromanagement, work overload and with the use of vendors and AI employees are at risk. Corporate seems to not care that were all tired of the customers that are being abusive when corporates made bad decisions and these poor people have thousands withdrawn from an AI error. Pay for this level of company and the increasing headaches is not good, no monthly bonus, no commissions. No pension. Health benefits are available but not affordable. And the undo stress is causing my peers to consider quiting even ones that been here over 10yrs
