Pros

The pay was on the same level as other companies.

Cons

Once out of training, do not ask questions, you will be looked at as stupid. I was taken from the company, by ambulance, at their request, due to health reasons that they witnessed. I was told to sign up for FMLA, for all my doctors appointments and was told I could not be written up during the approval process. I was written up during the review process and then told to attend my FMLA approval meeting, then fired at the FMLA approval meeting for a false charge.

Pros

- Can work from home

Cons

- Lots of politics with a weak leadership team - Security team rules with a iron fist, and has leadership that abuses their power and influence. They will flat out block innovation not because of security purposes just because of politics. They lead by intimidation - Lots of systems and platforms outdated and completely out of support - Lack of stability in leadership. Many managers left while I was there - Lack of accountability and ownership from IT leadership - Medical benefits are horrible
