NIC all the way

Pros

Working with NIC at the Virginia Portal has been a great experience. Seeing so many tenured people on staff is just an example of the success of a company and their environment as a whole. The benefits package you receive cannot be beat. My decision to leave was not due to disappointing factor working here, it was simply a personal decision to move to another state.

It's a job

Pros

Great medical, coworkers are great, upper management seems to care. Experience depends a lot on what portal you're in.

Cons

Same problems you'd get anywhere that puts marketting above development -- technical debt, backlogs of maintenance on legacy systems, constantly pushing for the next buzzword (leaving more tech debt). Claims to promote from within but I've seen no evidence of that, there are unfilled management jobs and qualified employees not getting them, nor is there any mentoring or coaching on why the employees are not being considered or how they could improve. Extreme overuse of marketing-speak, and treating all employees as if they were sales people. Most communication is from business side to business side -- tech is mostly ignored. Obvious favoritism among management, and obviously sexist GMs. People in "red state" portals beware.

There are seven core values that guide our business: innovation, passion, family, community, responsibility, trust, and integrity. We are all ambassadors of NIC regardless of which office or department we work in. We will continue to provide coaching and training to help make these values are consistent throughout the organization.Thank you for your feedback.
