Not a great place to work.

Program manager

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

A reasonable amount of paid time off.

Cons

HR is seriously disorganized and does not value people. Reorganization is constant. Management does not listen to the people on the ground doing the work. Communication is poor, particularly in the technology organization. Many in upper level management worry only about their own titles and corporate ladder climbing and are - by and large - dishonest and belittling to staff. Avoid this place if at all possible.

Business Outlook

Pros

- Great people; everyone in the office is friendly and easy to talk to; generally competent - Middle managers are helpful and approachable - Encouraged not to work overtime (almost everyone knocks off on time at 5.30pm)

Cons

- Company doesn't value PEs; they're dispensable and easy to outsource - No room for growth within some departments unless people leave/retire; limited lateral growth opportunities - Pay is below market rate - Serious lag in technology with no effort put into internal applications (apps that are used every day are 5-10 years outdated and extremely slow)
