Pros

New Cary campus is nice Compensation is above average for the area

Cons

IT practices are very immature and there is a general lack of IT professionalism Over emphasis on IT cost reduction results in poorly implemented outsourcing partnerships, poor quality, reactive management, chaotic priority shifts, low morale, high employee turnover Deeply engrained “old school” management culture, with excessive politics and “boys club” mentality Departmental silos and politics make it nearly impossible to implement solutions or process improvements Low maturity, slow pace, poor leadership and legacy technology will cause your skills\experiences\value\marketability to erode throughout your tenure
