Pros

Appeared to be an up and coming operation within PA...and appeared to be a good company on the onset.

Cons

Too many management changes, people who came in after I was hired (within a few days) were micromanagers to the HILT and would fire/demote people without cause. The corporate office might be nice, but the Pa office is HORRIBLE. My advice ? Look elsewhere.

Pros

Paid Health care is unheard of but NIC does this. They have a strong focus on work-life balance. You won't be worked to death at NIC, at my portal our GM was very positive about making sure people take their vacation and don't work lots of overtime. They were always looking for ways to make your time at work more enjoyable.

Cons

My Portal was full of outdated technology and there was no focus on making great products. It was get the work done so you can go home, or have an office party, etc. They have lots of parties and activities, which can be fun, but the work itself isn't very rewarding. There was so much software that nobody knew how all of it worked. 20+ years of technical debt weighs the company down. The company suffers from the Peter Principle where people move up into leadership and out of thier technical jobs, and thus move into positions where they aren't as qualified. Lots of office politics contribute to an environment where everyone pats each other on the back constantly wether they deserve it or not. They talk a lot about work-life balance, but think perhaps they are too far in the "life" side of this to the detriment of the work side.
