Was great, but not anymore!

Pros

Great coworkers who are at the same level. Good benefits, great 401k program! Starting allowing some work from home time.

Cons

The IT restructuring has caused everyone to go to hell. IT management is just concerned with impressing their own bosses, and will throw their people under the bus rather than admit their own mistakes. Outsourcing to India has caused quality to drop, and a culture of fear has grown. Employees are told they're "not working enough overtime" compared to their peers.

Low Pay, Micro Management

Pros

Easy to access from major highway.

Cons

I would never be able to recommend this company to anyone looking for career growth. Career stagnation is more what Everest offers. The mid-level management has been in place for 20+ years and doesn't move up or out, whether competent or not. Lower level staff have no where to go except out the door after a couple of years. There is no recognition for a well-done job and the pay is well under the current market rates for comparable positions in other companies. For the three years I was there, there was a complete turnover (out the door) of the non-supervisory staff in my group and since I left, I was told at least four more individuals have been hired and have subsequently left. This is again mostly due to extremely low pay, no growth, and a micro-managing supervisor who felt it was within their rights to read every email that the staff sent and thought it OK to correct even the smallest item (i.e., a COMMA in a sentence) in that email. The result of this kind of micro-management was extremely low morale and a mass exodus.
