Pros

Working at TTC, people treated me with the respect of being an expert in my field and empowered me to make decisions to improve the infrastructure and systems in the company. I accomplished many projects in the year I worked there. My direct manager was pretty great--he got out of your way and didn't micro-manage, but when he was needed, he was usually there. It does reek a bit of the "Gool ol boys" club, as most of the managers are stalwarts who have been there for a very very long time.

Cons

The salary is lower than larger competitors/enterprises. If you complain, they'll effectively say they can't afford to pay more. There was no bonuses. The insurance wasn't great. The time management/ask of employees/work life balance was not fair. When things were busy, they added an evening shift for production, and then still expected me to be supporting them without any raise or compensation. They also would not effectively staff a backup for me, who was critical to support various business systems. This made it extremely difficult to take any vacation or even take a sick day. They had no WFH policy. When there was a terrible snow storm in VA, IT staff was still expected to risk their safety to come in to the office when there was absolutely no need.
