Pros

Strong Values lead people to do the right things for the customers and employees Expected to deliver and be accountable, without being micromanaged Lots of smart people to learn from everyday to stay current

Cons

Growing fast which is a positive, but the management processes like job classifications, standard salary ranges, promotion processes need to mature along with this growth. I can see that some of this is in process.

Pros

What a great interview and hiring process to get things started! What an excellent recruiting team. I applied for a role that was not a perfect fit, but the recruiter recognized me as a great candidate fitting well with the culture and with a perfect skill match for an upcoming role in one of the business areas. Most recruiters would give up here and find someone for their immediate openings. The recruiter knew exactly which team to connect me with and had the role very quickly. WWT lives and breathes the best culture! I15+ years of working for top corporations, they blow everyone out of the water. I love going to work each day, which I don't know that I have since I first started working. The leadership cares deeply, the people are smart, motivated and engaged, the compensation and the benefits are both great and I am treated like a human here. The best is everyone I work with is intelligent, so I'm not having to pull the weight of others on my team. Instead, we are all able to work together with great ideas and manage projects and innovate in IT. My managers truly care about me and the team! Great growth potential.

Cons

Can't think of anything, in my experience. I've read and heard there are managers that might need to find the door. This is not in my area of IT though..

Pros

In my 20+ years career, I can easily say WWT has been the best employer I've ever had. The leadership cares deeply, the people are smart, motivated and engaged, the compensation and the benefits are both great and I am treated like a human here. The two directors for software engineers seem to truly care about us, and even though they just started, they have made *everything* better! This is the first place I've felt safe enough to try different things and be innovative. The work-life balance is truly a thing here. Of course, there are times we have deadlines and we all have to roll up our sleeves, but it's balanced by a generous PTO policy and I can always go talk to my managers if anything comes up in my personal life. I've never had the level of support I have now with previous employers. This is really a great place to work!

Cons

Be careful not to hire people too fast. I don't want to dilute our culture just because we need to grow.
