Pros

Some terrific people, real talent. Opportunity to get noticed and demonstrate your initiative, if approached in the right manner.

Cons

Leadership vacuum at the top and in several of the Business Units. Leaders talk about value propositions, integrating more value onto the platforms, ensuring the highest customer satisfaction and being our own best customers. I heard too much conversation about ROI; Making our numbers; without guidance and future vision for how to get their.

Pros

-Decent pay but lower compared to industry - Flexible schedule depending on your supervisor and manager - Interesting industry to work for - Some people are nice and friendly

Cons

- The advancement of your career DOESN'T depend on your performance, results or work ethic, it depends on your relationship with the supervisor and manager. You need to suck up to higher ups before even moving forward. - Very toxic and stagnant environment - Growth is almost non-existent -Ancient technology - Most young, career driven individuals doesn't last more than 1 year in this place - Efficiency of processes is so low because management are NOT open to any new ideas or new processes which can be very frustrating for the people doing the actual work. - Different rules apply to different people depending on your supervisors - Very old school bureaucratic environment - Some of the people are peacocks and hard to work with - So many empty promises -0 accountability, mistakes done by higher ups are ultimately pinned down to the people below. There were instances where mistakes were found and occurred years ago but was somehow the associate's fault who just started. - Zero training - Poor quality of documentation to work with and primitive processes - Managers don't know what they are doing at times and demands associates to figure everything out. - Unfortunately some supervisors are condescending, unfair, sneaky and hateful. But there are other supervisors who were the coolest and fun to work with. - Politics exists everywhere but the negativity and frustration in this place is unbearable and super real that is why young talents leave within a year or two. - Overall toxic company culture
