Most dysfunctional IT department I have ever seen

Pros

Hard to come up with anything here.

Cons

Outdated equipment, outdated methodologies, and outdated concepts - IT management is filled with long term bench sitters who have not bothered to adapt to anything past 1990. A culture of fear and micromanagement stifles any attempt at innovation - employees feel lucky to survive, and dare not stick their heads up enough to try and go above and beyond. Obligatory, scheduled, repeating overtime to handle what has long since been regular routine maintenance tasks. The department as a whole is treated as a cost drain to the company, not as a value adding entity.

Pros

Very people focused company with solid benefits. Rapid growth and reinvestment into their business has created much opportunity. They are ethical and giving in their community.

Cons

Dated good old boy culture that shows with very little young talent. Little or no meaningful engagement from leadership. Operationally a nightmare with entrenched legacy systems across the enterprise and little willingness to change. Every decision made seems to go through the legal department. Very hard to accomplish anything. Everything moves extremely slow. Simply put, they're 30 years behind schedule with all aspects.
