Pros

My commute was not bad.

Cons

Gossip runs rampant along the halls of Technatomy... "Who's the next to be laid off?" "Who's going to quit next?" "The COO really said THAT in a meeting?" You won't like it here. They'll be friendly at first, but they are sharks... and once they smell blood, all bets are off. Most of the good people who were at Technatomy have left (or were forced to leave!), and the rest are looking to leave. They're hiring all these "Chief Whose-It-Whats-Its" and "Vice Presidents of Whatever" in a sad attempt to save a company that's beyond saving... and isn't even worth saving. The CEO and the COO have run the company into the ground by blaming everyone else around them for their failure. Trust me, if you work here, you'll be blamed for SOMETHING within the first week. Something that probably happened years before you even heard of the company. If you stick around for long enough, you'll get to see the company restructure at least three times in one year. They may even spin up that good ol' "Corporate Culture" initiative again to save face and act like they actually care about their employees. It's adorable. The two guys in charge don't realize that there's one common denominator in this equation, and they're it.

Incompetence.

Pros

Most of the people are great, lifelong friendships have been formed here. Some of the contracts are really interesting. Dental plan (and only the dental plan) is pretty good compared to most others I have come across.

Cons

Cancerous and ineffective HR leadership, the person describing her as being part of a high school “clique” is extremely accurate, yet does not fully describe her incompetence and constant power plays in company politics. Decision making paralysis with the CEO being the only truly empowered person in the company to make decisions. This all appears to be completely as intended. Nickel and dime job offer process, where certain aspects are non-negotiable. Pay raises are appallingly low, and mid-level management has little to no impact on the whole process, as all compensation is decided on by the CEO personally. Ineffective review process with little to no accountability on goals. Favoritism is rampant – their “telecommute” policy is a great example of this, as it not fairly applied or even open to all employees. Favored employees have moved hundreds of miles away after they decide to work from home, while you have to go and sit in a hotel cubicle every day. Technology is way behind. Laptops and software systems are very old and not used by most employees. IT is hamstrung by the CEO to make any effective improvements. Business programs, like the “MTS Leveling” and “Transformation” programs grow in favor, but since the CEO never really supported them, they eventually disappear after employees put a lot of work into them. Employees who escape the company are routinely disrespected by executives in open conversations. No technical writers at all, and each employee at every level is expected to contribute to proposals in addition to their 40 billable hours per week. There is little to no support from the company in these writing efforts. The CEO avoids employee contact, and accomplishes this with his own private entrance to the HQ office. The single worst working environment I have ever experienced.

Pros

It's a paycheck, otherwise not applicable

Cons

Extreme nepotism Closed mind approach to developing employees, very little opportunity for growth HR's lack of communication Frequent turnover Employee's are not given adequate credit for all the extra BD work, the expectation is "your free time" Lack of quality a Benefits package HR is run like an old boys club... but by women. If you aren't well liked, you're screwed... especially because HR might as well be the CEO. There is zero accountability for HR who doesn't meet industry standards
