Pros

The team and our manager was great. Never a dull moment

Cons

Upper management does not value IT and does not fully fund it for what needs to be accomplished. They would rather farm a project out; to a 3rd party group that does not know what they are doing, does not deliver on time, and the work is wrong AND spend a huge about of money on it verses letting those engineers who know the application upgrade the application and back fill them with contractors.

Thank you for your comments and feedback regarding your experience with us. Often times, when taking on a project of short duration, we often do outsource that project to a 3rd party so as not to pull our full time resources off of their core responsibilities. Augmenting our full time staff is often times more efficient than hiring additional full time staff for a project. That all said, I have shared your concerns and comments with the appropriate parties as we continue to work to improve our processes and strategies related to our projects and initiatives.

Pros

Very little micro-management and senior leadership actually listens to engineer feedback. The pay and ability to work remotely was also great.

Cons

You may end up wearing multiple hats. While this can be daunting at first, the experienced gained was invaluable.

Pros

If you like working 24/7/365 you will do great here.

Cons

Upper management is out of touch, using earned PTO is frowned upon, turnover is very high company wide. 401k match is abysmal, PTO is less than market average, no sick time until first anniversary, expensive healthcare premiums.
