Cons
The outsourced help desk is not the greatest but they are ge tting better and issues are being addresses little by little, too much work and not enough time to do it, some teams get many awards while other groups work just as hard or harder and do not get recognized, a lot of reorganization means few promotions unless someone changes roles
