Pros

- Sears is undergoing a huge change, as one of the software engineer full time employee, I can take on greater responsibility and further develop my skill set. - Coworkers at the Online Business Unit are all hardworking and smart people. - The cafeteria and the HQ location is very nice and beautiful. - Great work, Life balance - Pay above industry medium for a losing company. but don't expect huge end year bonus though.

Cons

- The company lacks vision, the upper management is driving this company to the ground. - negative quarter after negative quarter, this giant is going downhill really fast compare to it's competition Walmart and Target. - The HR people are really confused and lack proficiency.

Pros

The people here are nice. Since it's a small part of Sears, every person knows the other person.

Cons

Work overload: If your coworkers are inept, you will be given all the work to do, and they WILL make you work the weekends with no compensation. Unqualified coworkers: My coworkers have no idea what they are doing. The database team is very knowledgable and smart, but the .Net team needs some better programmers
