Pros

Some nice associates and the discount.

Cons

New management has no "clue" how to run anything! If you want bad training, horrible management and software that is outdated and never works this is the place for you. You want to feel like your in Kindergarten sign-up it here! Use to be a wonderful place, people our running not walking out in droves... Corporate wake-up!!! And that HR person upstairs... has no idea how to be an HR person does not belong in that position at all! Started NOT promoting from within.

Pros

The office had a good coffee machine, which employees appreciated. The cafeteria staff member was friendly and welcoming, which made the environment feel a little more positive. Opportunity to observe how long-established corporate operations function.

Cons

Management style felt very micromanaged. The management in the IT appeared heavily focused on older management methods rather than collaborative leadership. Favoritism was noticeable among certain employees and teams. Contract workers were treated differently from full-time employees, including exclusion from social events, food gatherings, and team activities. The IT teams often seemed disconnected and unwilling to support or train others properly. Communication issues were common, including employees talking negatively about coworkers behind their backs. Training and onboarding lacked structure and consistency. The workplace often felt disorganized, with unclear processes and coordination problems.
