Pros

Local management allowed for autonomy and employees were trusted to do what they needed to do to provide a quality work product. We were given the tools to be successful. The annual bonuses are an excellent benefit of working for this company.

Cons

Upper management did not seem to understand what was going one in the regional offices. The WC Management had unrealistic expectations of what could be done in a normal day and the expectation was that we should work overtime and on weekends to stay caught up. The workloads were crazy.

Pros

Above-average pay per tech position. Clean commute in a rural location. Held the line fiscally through a tough time

Cons

Old-boys management, zero mobility. No management of expectations with every team allowed to demand everything of the dev staff all at once, so no way to schedule and manage anything. Pure pressure, and personality-based system of promotion. Hanging on to old systems, zero innovation, zero mobile app approach.

Pros

Great team and opportunities to collaborate. Company is big enough that you can make an impact, but small enough that you can shine as an individual as well. Good benefits, healthy work/life balance, a real focus on employee development and appreciation.

Cons

Company can sometimes be conservative when taking risks.
