Excellent community-focussed Company

Pros

Great benefits and great people. Excellent community-focussed culture. This organization truly cares about its members, employees, and community. "Diversity and inclusion" are not just buzzwords in this company. It is ingrained in the culture.

Cons

Too much beuracracy. Slow to change, but is improving. There will always be difficult people in every organization. This organization, like every other organization, will not be the right fit for everyone, but the human resources department and managers do a good job at screening candidates for cultural fit.

IT culture has become toxic

Pros

There are pockets of good people throughout the company and some good managers on the business side, but executive leadership has misguided direction and the new IT management is highly destructive.

Cons

IT management is horrible with favoritism and bullying occurring at every level from CBTO down to middle management. Completely inappropriate and demoralizing behavior.
