Pros

Athens is beautiful. The Ohio campus is beautiful. There are many, many great people there. It has traditionally been a truly wonderful place to work.

Cons

The IT department has become caustic. Ever since the current CIO arrived, everyone is on egg shells and constantly looking over their shoulder. Nobody trusts upper management who struts around like Little Lord Farqaad saying one thing and demonstrating another. Everyone there used to live for that department. Now, almost everyone I know hates it there. I know many people looking for new positions and greener pastures. With everyone they have been letting go and running off, it seems they only want Jr experience (and the cheaper labor) that goes with them.

Pros

Great teams. Some strong leadership. Opportunities to build professional relationships across functional teams. Generous PTO package for exempt employees.

Cons

Pay, promotional, and titling practices are ambiguous and preferential. Exempt employees are expected (based on workload) to consistently work well beyond 40 hours per week with severely understaffed departments and unreasonable volume expectations, which also makes it a challenge to enjoy the PTO package.
