Pros

- Above average pay in Houston and in the industry

Cons

- If you are in IT, pay is below average comparing to tech companies of the same size - Too much fat at the top in the IT org: senior management and leadership are clueless and mostly non-technical. Decision making from the leadership is poor and often for shows and power grabbing, not for the good will of the company. - Morality is extremely low. Regular developers suffer the most from bad leadership.

Pros

Good pay and a pension

Cons

Everything else. Benefits are lackluster, Flex Your Day policies are elusive. The company changes everything all the time so that a large portion of your time is spent finding new links to things on the portal, figuring out who to contact in various departments and in what country just to get a simple answer to a question. No one stays in the same role long enough to get good at their job. Morale is terrible.
