Pros

From a business analyst perspective at the corporate offices, there are many talented, friendly and hard working individuals.

Cons

There has been a great deal of turnover and loss of knowledge in the BA pool over the past year leading to a lot of hard lessons for the replacement staff. The current senior management in IT Service Delivery has been unsuccessful in defining a clear and documented project management methodology. In turn, BA roles and responsibilities are painfully vague with little support or communication from project management. Further, BA resources are not hired, managed, or compensated based on experience or merit. Some seasoned Business Analysts have been hired at significantly lower wages and have greater responsibilities than some entry level Business Analysts recently hired.

Pros

The work is challenging and there can be some good people to work with. Lots of travel if you enjoy that. Per diem pay while traveling

Cons

Your suppose to be in charge of a team of store associates who have been told there basically there to help out doing some easy tasks and getting lots of overtime. In actuality the job is very labor intensive which makes the associates feel lied too and not willing to work. This means more work for you.
