Pros

Compensation is above average Benefits package is above average Some opportunities to work from home Some people are good to work with but there are not many left

Cons

Very little opportunity for career advancement in IT Extremely poor management at the IT senior manager level and above Promotions within IT are not based on merit People are not proud to work here. In fact it is the complete opposite IT Managers have little credibility and poor skills and incredibility incompetent and disliked Knowledgeable people receive very little respect. It is really shocking but people get used to it

Pros

Some of the people are not so bitter, but the vast majority are The managers seem to be able to survive with no great turnover There is work but no real bench strength

Cons

A really poor work environment where survival is the key There is really no incentive to do well or to get ahead since it's not recognized The management team do not listen nor do they appreciate the hard work of key individuals People are leaving in droves and there is an increasingly negative work atmosphere with people desperate to get out
