      Pros

      Free lunch; good healthcare benefits; pension and 401K match. Approve of CEO. It’s the CIO that I would not approve of. See below.

      Cons

      IT is treated poorly by all other areas of the company and the CIO is a lot to blame for this. Business and IT Technology is aging but the SR leadership focuses on buying software to manage IT budgets and projects and creating process flows on how to manage projects. CIO’s focus is on red tape and creating roadblocks and blaming her department for issues versus being a passionate leader that is investing her time in making the company holistically better and valuing her employees. Highly recommend not considering WS until CIO is replaced. PMO practices are outdated and impede progress. Issues have been brought to CIO attention, but they fall on deaf ears. Work balance is not good. People are promoted by hours in your seat versus quality work. This is a “Boys Club” as well. Don’t rock the boat here or ask challenging questions.

      Pros

      Located downtown, so very walkable. Optional pet insurance benefit is nice. They don't do layoffs, so very stable company to work for. An OK place to work at as a first job out of college. Provided daily lunch is sometimes really good.

      Cons

      The building has a roach infestation and they are spotted several times a month. Management tends to play favorites. One manager has been reported to HR multiple times by multiple people across many years for being too aggressive to the point several employees have had mental breakdowns, yet still retains their position. Dress code is business professional despite most never interacting with customers. No work from home at all. Company claims to be secular but very clearly has a Christian lean around Christmas time. Yearly raises do not keep up with inflation. Employees are told they are not to discuss their wages with each other, likely due to pay discrepancies between employees in the same roles.
