Reviews about "work life balance"
Return to all Reviews- 3.0May 10, 2018Project ManagerFormer Contractor, less than 1 yearRochester, NY
Pros
Nice building. Good, smart people who wamt to make a difference in a political company culture. Cafeteria is good. Good work/life Balance. People tend to leave before 5pm and by 5:10pm the building is empty.
Cons
They are trying to change the fear driven, cya culture that was instituted by the previous CEO. Unfortunately, they are not quite there yet. The ”lifetime way” sounds great on paper, but teamwork and accountability are not found as often as one would hope. Parking is expensive and the waiting list for reduced cost monthly parking is 6-12 months.

Pros
The benefits are absolutely fantastic. Good work life balance.
Cons
- Upper IT management is seemingly promoting micromanagement. Agile transformation is going against everything the agile methodology is about. It is making developers lives harder, and SCRUM masters are now pushing for devs to do more work so they can justify the team numbers to upper management. - Upper IT management seems shield themselves in secrecy. You hear murmurs of reorgs and when you confront middle management about it, they act like they've never heard anything about it. - Fantastic long term employees are leaving or actively searching for new positions in droves. Turnover in the IT dept will be high in the next few months. - Promotions are hard to come by.
