Pros

There are some great and very friendly people that work here. New management is try to make change but old politics is strong. If you can work here many other companies would be a breeze.

Cons

IT Management is unorganized and controlling. It is more of a "punch the clock environment" . Their philosophy is more like: 'you don't come to work to enjoy it you come only to work product first people second". Many of the older employees like this environment (slow boring and dull which produces an unfriendly environment), but if you like the modern culture this is not for you.
