Pros

The pay is really good compared to it's peers. 401k plan doubled my money over the couple of years I was there.

Cons

You will spend 50% of your time watching your own back for people trying to stab you to get ahead. After an injury in which I was hospitalized for a month, I came back to get written up as "everything had gone wrong" while I was gone. I waited around for another review cycle - where everything was glowing - and then literally walked out the door on this job and stayed unemployed (by choice) for 6 months after. I considered changing job roles altogether but decided to stay in IT after the effect of this place wore off.

Pros

Great for lazy people who know how to keep their manager happy!

Cons

I have been working here for about year and a half - this is one of the most volatile companies I have come across. Higher management is clueless about how to streamline the technology department and their last resort has always been to re-shuffle the departments every 6-8 months. The turnover of employees in BTS division is really high and something everyone should look into before thinking of getting a job here. The new CIO has created a DELL empire here by bringing so many people from DELL - who literally have nothing to contribute.
