Micromanagers have severe meltdowns over issues that are standard technology tasks after they claim they use to develop software before becoming managers. Micromanagers demand some employees work day, night, holidays, weekends with threats of firing or various punishments of putting negative marks on employees hr records (even making up stories if they have to). Micromanagers demand employees come up with 'innovative ideas' that the micromanagers then present as their own ideas. Micromanagers demand that employees pay for work related expenses without reimbursement. HR supports and promotes abusive micromanagers. HR and micromanagers waste alot of time / money with petty office politics & covering for each other while abusing some employees. All the positive happy stories and promises to new employees are rarely backed up with positive action. Lots of burn out & high employee turn over rates.

Upper management is suffocating at the Madison office. You will be undervalued and told that you are easily replaced at the salary offered. Office hours are 8-5pm with no option to work from home or flex your hours if need be. Vacation accrual is not enough for the work/life balance they offer. Quality of work is often poor. Office has just been renovated to add a few more desks, but cut everyone else's space down to just enough space to fit 2 monitors. Request for training and supplies is usually ignored, office printer is over 10 years old and often doesn't work. All of this together makes you wonder about the financial stability of the Wisconsin office.
