Pros

- Smaller company ~1100 employees - Users are bright and down to earth; desperate for IT support - A few great IT employees but they are undermined and intimated by departmental favorites

Cons

- IT department is dysfunctional; upper-management, including the head of IT (CFO), are inept and incompetent - IT personnel operate within silos or cliques; if they like you you're in...if not you're out of a job - 1970's IT operation; IT lacks customer-centric, business partner approach; IT staff are career techies (back to main-frame environment) with no desire to interact with customers - IT leadership cultivates an environment where "snitches" excel - No teamwork - just a group of mediocre, underachieving individuals

Pros

Dynamic work environment with many opportunities to get experience in a variety of fields. Management is accommodating and respectful of employee time.

Cons

While Draper works on a wide variety of projects, I found I didn’t get much of a say in what I was working on. I was placed on projects that didn’t align with my stated preferences.
