Advice to Senior Management

Too much is focused on hiring a certain type of individual if it weren't for the temp agencies I doubt many minorities would get hired.

Pros

If you like to go with the flow you might be satisfied. Good salary and good benefits.

Cons

In relation to software development, the company has zero interest in your future. IT managers are typically interested in their own political glory and control- not what is best for the company in long term or the employee. High turnover. Leaving coders either have to go back to their old job or change their career field. Lots of bickering between departments and divisions.
