Pros
• Each business unit within the company goes by its own rules so a review of the company as a whole would not be very beneficial. I worked for the Managed Services Organization. • Good Benefits overall; decent PTO offering and excellent tuition reimbursement program • Good training and advancement potential but your results may differ as it varies greatly by business unit • Excellent severance package - but if business run correctly should not have been necessary
Cons
• 4 rounds of layoffs over the past 12 months - very diminished morale and stress for remaining employees • A lot of silos, poor cross business unit collaboration • Questionable promotion decisions. During my time saw a lot of people get promoted "by default" and are the ones who generally were not the most qualified or best choice - but is this any different in any other company? • Constant organizational changes – again in my view this is occasionally necessary but as frequently as is done shows that earlier decisions not well vetted out. • For most managers performance management is a formality with no true meaning - goes back to many of the people promoted should never have been and those that are need formal training on leadership principles. • Use of most recent technology and processes is lagging a bit but not as much as in some other companies I have seen • Talent acquisition process is poor especially for internal applicants • Used to have pretty good work-from-home philosophy but more recent leadership is reversing that trend (which is the wrong direction)
