Pros

Started off as great 6 years ago went from CTE to FTE . Great leaders like Wendy Carpenter, Priya and others are gone and people left behind are getting more fed up, there is more around identity than capabilities being pushed

Cons

1 - problem is that more people that types that were deservedly fired after the breach have now come back as M&A (Kount/9 other companies) and more HP mindset flunkies who bring the same problems 2 - THEY DO NOT CARE about workloads and only seek to buy more M&A's to not show that they can't solution things and more problems are growing. 3 - Best resources with institutional knowledge are leaving with more people having to pick up slack - D&A, Data, Analytics, Data Fabric, Interconnect, Security, IDF are all gutted with only the "Yes" people who don't report problems remaining. 4- Current Management in most all groups especially USIS WILL SHOOT THE MESSENGER so be prepared for it 5 - NADA in BONUSES - days of 20k avg bonuses are gone past year 6 - More interpersonal politics are increasing and less real solutions 7 - The plan by reverse action - deliver by dates instead of functions and solutions, bad way to plan first by a date is insane.

Pros

Zero Ghosting: Communication was super consistent and clear from start to finish. I was never left wondering. Flexible & Open: The hiring managers were genuinely open to discussing the scope of the role, rather than just handing down a rigid checklist of duties. They Stuck to the Timeline: They verbalized exactly how long the process would take and followed through perfectly. No unexpected delays or moving goalposts.

Cons

Missed the In-Person Connection: While the remote process was smooth, I would have loved the opportunity to meet some of the team in person before finalizing everything. Needed More Day-to-Day Specifics: The big-picture conversations about the role were great, but I could have used a bit more clarity and specific detail around what the actual daily routine and tasks look like.
