Pros

It's good the have dedicated team members who's focus on the same goal, success! Everyone is trying very hard to make every campaign a success to prove that we can succeed at any task thrown at us.

Cons

With the constant leadership changes, it's hard to figure out what direction this new site head will lead the site. The jury is still out on this new site head.

Pros

Good Pay Good Benefits Business class travel

Cons

Sr. Mgmt in IT ( CIOs and VPs) are politicians. They've no clue how to run the organization efficiently.To get a high profile job it's important who you know rather what you know? Utter disdain for talent. There are good people in lower ranks who are holding their positions just because of their salary. Folks in US have monumental task of climbing up the ladder unless you're a politicians. Nobody cares for delivery. Very strong Basel culture. Everything needs to have Basel stamp.
