Not a great experience

Pros

- Good benefits including health insurance, a 401k match, and ESPP. - Decent amount of PTO and sick pay.

Cons

Lack of transparency and misleading leadership. ICE is in the business of acquisitions and they sell you on their culture being great. After a few months, you quickly learn that it's not great. Some of the leadership team are horrible leaders. Common themes throughout the leadership are micromanagement, lack of trust, unncessary procedures, and endless red tape.

Pros

Brand name on profile. Nothing else

Cons

The company's hire management is not bothered about your work-life balance and don't care how much workload you are handling. Company policy is to overload you with tons of work and expect you to work late to get work done, Working late is not an exception but a norm here. Folks tend to stay late to make an impression to there managers and are suitable rewarded. If you have kids and elderly's to take care of at home, God save you from the wrath of your manager. Company decided to remove equity part from packages retroactively. It's like you work for one month and at the end of the month you are told - "Oh btw, we are only going to pay for 20 days instead of 30 days". What's amazing is NO ONE raised there voice to oppose the decision. ICE surely knows how to suppress any aggression or opposition. You are literally on the mercy of manager and most resort to buttering and worshipping. To their credit these tact's work very well.

Pros

Fortune 500 company. Many technologies to learn. Easy way to make money doing essentially nothing.

Cons

No run for growth. The company is forgetting what made them the company they are. No work life balance. Discrimination from management in New York. Completely terrible company after purchasing NYSE.
