Pros

The compensation was good in all areas and the co-workers were generally good people. The management was always willing to purchase us new equipment as needed and the work environment was relatively relaxed.

Cons

As one would expect from a massive non-tech company there were ridiculous standards which hindered the team's ability to supply the best solution to many problems. My team dealt with b2b projects and often times were were not brought in to give feedback until the project was mostly decided upon by the client and business analysts. It's a massive banking and insurance company so the work is pretty soulless in nature.

Pros

Good benefits, hybrid work arrangement is flexible (you can choose your 3 days in office)

Cons

Tenure and friendship is valued more than actual skillsets. Many people in Ops have no formal college education or true technical skills, and have been complacent in the dept for 10+ years. This leads to inefficient and stale processes that are reluctant to change. The culture is extremely passive aggressive and long-tenured employees are not welcoming to new hires from outside of the organization. People will go out of their way to sabotage opportunities for those offering new perspectives with greater value add. This causes forced interactions with low value collaboration. Many in analytical roles do not even understand basic Microsoft Office skills, Excel functions, V/XLOOKUPS, etc. and data is often reviewed manually per line item… This company is run like a low budget mom and pop shop where inefficient and backwards practices are toxically in circulation.
