Pros

Pay. Staff. Beautiful campus located in good location within Salem.

Cons

Management within IS are ineffective and spend too much time in meetings and enforcing LEAN fundamentals in the daily work. They don’t understand the amount of work they create on some staff and allow other staff to do very little. Horrible execution when it comes to completing projects! Sustain and operate is reactive, causing excessive stress on staff to maintain. LEAN! LEAN! LEAN! Makes too much emphasis on making charts, false metrics, silly wall art to show bogus results. So called “Test of change” is a cover up to excuse lack of thought before implementing a “great idea”, Be prepared to feel stressed more than normal, under appreciated, overworked and ignored. Have little sense of purpose and ownership to the work. Inequality of workload. It’s 0300 as I write this review if that tells you anything. It shouldn’t be this easy to have so much to dislike about a company, but it’s the environment in IS that creates the response.

Leadership could be better. Communication with HR, management, etc is not good. The pay seems low, especially for how hard we work.
