Pros
QVC pays maybe a tad below what you would expect from the larger companies in the area but still their pay is on par. QVC work day is 7.5 hour with a .5 lunch so it's much better than so other companies that will make you work 8 hours with a 1 hour lunch. (This is assuming you are not needed for overtime) Studio Park building is very nice though the parking is terrible. Good cafeteria
Cons
Overtime in IT is common and I have had to put in some grueling hours when needed IT is getting shuffled from the Studio Park building to the Founder Park location down the road. Founder Park location is a dump compared to Studio Park. The new management took away all of the previous Application Developer titles away and just made three levels in order to take away bargaining power of the employees. For example under the old system there were 5 levels which employees typically made the following salaries(give or take $5k); Application Developer 1 - $55,000k Application Developer 2 - $70,000k Application Developer 3 - $85,000k Application Developer 4 - $100,000k Application Developer 5 - $115,000k They now took all of this away and just made three levels all with giant ranges in salary. Associate Application Developer Application Developer Senior Application Developer Basically what this does is mask what anyone is making. Why is this bad? Simple....employees have no way to leverage their salary in the current system. For example in the current system there are multiple Associate Application Developers literally 1 year out of college who were promoted to Application Developer. Think about this. A 24 year old employee with 1 year in the company now has the same title as a 45 year employee with 20 years experience. Their pay is no where near each other but since the old levels were taken away, everyone basically ends up with the same title and no one really knows where the stand which means they could never negotiate for pay. Basically the easiest way to really move up in salary is to leave. That is the hard truth, the people who stay do so because of the comfort factor of a steady paycheck with a familiar building.
