Not hit bottom yet, but getting there

Pros

Some good people, if you get the right kind of boss you can work on a pet project for a while and then quit before anyone notices you haven't delivered anything really usable.

Cons

so, so many - most of the MDs and Ds here would absolutely not be hired at any other bank because they have zero skills, so they're clinging on until they go down with the ship.

Good company - Bad management

Assistant vice president

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

It was said that you don't have to love your company but most people do leave the work because of the management. Well in this company that is very fundamental that you may or may not enjoy the work you get but 50% of management has bad attitude. Most original people was brought in and still there because they were hired without any experience in IT/Finance/ or project management just to fill seats. Many people got pink slips in past because they raise voices, asked for better work, and if they don't able to fire them then provide a bad review so employee need to leave the company. Unfortunately, even when user tries to find another job within the VPs will not provide good review and will not bother to help you.

Cons

This is the place you will learn how to play politics staying among people who are not capable of running the groups but by chance they got VP and director titles. You will have to do lot of buttering to VPs in order to survive in this place otherwise just doing your job good will not take you anywhere. VPs are not able to share or i should say they are not capable of providing the team goal, what value proposition they want to do deliver each year. Uneducated VPs who came from old school like nortel and some brought from London do not share good feedback and make one of their assistant from the team, praise them only and keep other members under them. These VPs are not able to run self organize teams, they don't know how to motivate teams, how to find impediments and remove them, very ego rustic people work in this location. If i have option i will work elsewhere

Pros

The Cary, North Carolina physical plant is very nice. It is located right next to the Black Creek Greenway, a pleasant afternoon walk. Promised future renovations include a cafeteria and gym.

Cons

They never do things right the first time. Middle management seems incapable of learning from its many failures. Senior management encourages middle management to blame subordinates instead of taking responsibility. The pervasive culture of blame means people spend more time and effort finger-pointing than actually doing work.
