      Pros

      Coworkers are amazing to work with. Management and team sizes were very comfortable to work with. Nice work-life balance when off the clock and expectations on deadlines.

      Cons

      Poor software engineer pay compared to the overall market. Poor opportunities to explore other areas of IT in the company. The work you do is very siloed and you manage a couple items with very little chance to explore new technologies or have a change in what you work on.

      Pros

      Multiple office locations across the country Hybrid system for those that like to be in office

      Cons

      Poor communication Low pay compared to other industry positions Software is old and outdated Positions that are typically salary are hourly based Most "surveys" to gauge employee sentiment are constructed in such a way that no negative feedback can be left Hybrid or in office is required, no option for full remote If you happen to be full remote, there is no upward mobility possible for you, period. Excessive workload Not very good benefits

      Thank you for your feedback. We understand that workloads can fluctuate from time to time and encourage our associates to have conversations with their leadership teams for support. Our organization regularly reviews market rates to ensure our compensation rates are competitive. We also strive to offer work life balance along with growth opportunities. We believe our hybrid model is the right blend of at-home days to support flexibility, and in-office days to support team collaboration. Regarding your other comments, we take feedback like this seriously, and I encourage you to reach out to me or another supervisor to discuss your concerns further.
