Pros

Great benefits with a flexible schedule...depending upon your reporting line.

Cons

Far too many people in role for too long that makes them single minded in their views. Too many people that hold onto the old adage of 'we've always done it this way'. Network and IT Operations is some of the worst I've seen in my career. Fire drill mentality is rampant due to their 'Customer First' philosophy. Applications that aren't seen as a growth target are left with zero maintenance with some systems being in excess of 10 years old technology and completely out of support.

Pros

A technology company so far behind that there is always interesting projects going on. In the past year executive leadership seems to have some focus and it does not feel like organization ADD. Benefits are very competitive.

Cons

A very consistent pattern of RIF's every few months. It is interesting that it is not always the lower performers, be very careful expressing an opinion for progress to middle management or you will very likely find yourself on the next RIF list. This is a management team that thinks they know it all. There are very few examples of leaders in this group, most are bosses, will make sure to tell you how to do the job. If you are coming in make sure to get a very good understanding of the expectation of role and responsibilities. If you are skilled you will be taken advantage of and asked to contribute at higher grade levels but performance and advancement is very subjective and there is no transparency in organizations like IT about what it takes to move to next levels. Unless of course you are playing that middle management stroking feathers game right..
