Pros

The employees are generally very nice to one another this is probably due to collectively trying to find direction in the many changing processes and procedures. Pay is good. The community initiative is very rewarding to those who can participate

Cons

The mid tier management is completely disconnected from the fundamental processes of what generates income for the organization as a whole. Some departments have leadership that has the ability to support their team due to the bureaucracy they have attained. Most departments have absent management that deals out more work than their employees can handle. It seems there is 2-3 people a week leaving the organization. I know several employees that have physical or mental ailments due to the unrealistic deadlines set forth by the upper management that has no idea on how long processes take. In effort to CYA management creates needless documents, spreadsheets and PowerPoint decks they never review. Most lower employees work there less than a year before they tune up their resume and look for anywhere else.

Pros

The benefits package is pretty awesome. Though experiences vary significantly from one department to the next, generally speaking: There is a great deal of opportunity to transition between teams and get promoted. Several departments offer flextime and/or work-from-home opportunities. There is a focus on employee development. High-performing employees are visibly recognized. Expectations are clearly communicated. Some departments have a strong focus on work-life balance.

Cons

Some departments have a poor or very poor work-life balance. Promotion is usually more dependent on who you know, not how you do; this has become institutionalized--lackluster networking is interpreted as a lack of managerial aptitude. Political mis-steps can result in disciplinary action including termination. It is very hard to improve your personal brand if it becomes tainted; upper management routinely discuss employees and a negative reputation will spread.

Pros

- Flexible work life balance/Generally understanding company - Paid volunteer Time off - Generous PTO - Pay was industry standard - health plans were high deductable - Vision - they paid part of the health plan - Retirement plan - They hire mostly decent people on the lower levels - Management in the Agile department was amazing

Cons

- They will sacrifice you in an instant because a consultant coaching the executives says your position is obsolete without understanding the impact you have had made or your personal performance. - They do not understand how they provide value to the customer. - People there are afraid to speak up in most areas, low psych safety - moved from remote and hybrid options to forcing hybrid because "they said so" - They went from doing what made sense to more command and control -
