Pros

Beautiful campus...that's about it

Cons

Terrible pay and a manager that promotes brown nosing and back stabbing. If you're not in an Engineering dept then you can count on them to not treat you right or advance you. Terrible raises...they give you 50 cents and act like they did you a huge favor. Leadership has a "use you, burn you out, and throw you away" mentality.

Pros

Supportive environment, leadership accessible and open to conversation, driven to adopt new technology, strong standing in the telco segment

Cons

Permissions and red tape prevent easily performing all required job duties and force reaching out to multiple others for quick and easy fixes. Lots of technology and good to adopt new technology, but it needs to all be integrated better instead of separate programs that can't speak to each other.
