A culture of backstabbing

Pros

Was really a great company to work for when I first started. Great salary, a relatively close drive (40-45 minutes on a good traffic day) but that's Chicago. Now that Paychex has taken over day-to-day operation, my outlook really changed (see cons).

Cons

Training is minimal. A lot of undocumented processes or in essence "fly by the seat of your pants" mentality which in some cases led to disastrous results, especially when dealing with client's complex tax issues. In my department, I had to deal with individuals who "dump and run" issues on your lap and expected you to fix it., even though it's not your responsibility. I presented many issues like this to my manager who shrugged his shoulders and just took it on even though it just added more to the pile.

Pros

Great people and environment. The IT work is great and you really see your work in action, unlike some of the larger corporations where your work is lost in the mix.

Cons

Management has no direction. Management should never opt to take the shortcut, but the right path that leads to the right solution

Pros

Company benefits are outstanding. 401k, FSA, HSA, Roth, tuition reimbursement, flexible work schedule, company pays incentives for employees to maintain healthy lifestyles. Smart employees committed to success and collaboration. Leadership is personable, professional, and illustrates clear direction.

Cons

Work from home is the way companies are moving. Would like to see more trust in employees with the understanding working from home will not be suitable for all personality types or the home environment they have (kids make it challenging to work from home, but people without kids don't have distractions).
