Pros

Location especially with parking access 24/7. PTO policy favors the elder age but a lot of days given if you can take them. Benefits as well compliment a family nicely. Benefits also appear to come in handy if you have a surgery to have done.

Cons

Extreme high turnover, due partly to a struggling company but mainly little to no care of quality employee's. Management has favorites more than the general sense for a corporate setting. Very little opportunity to advance for career growth, opportunities are given to explore other departments but not necessarily needing to be qualified causing frustration. HR cares little to none of any frustrations presented partly because that turnover as well is extremely high making it difficult to manage existing employees care and well being. HR main job is to hire and handle that process not care for employees in house. Experienced 3 CEO's and numerous upper management changes in little amount of time working there. Lower level positions will be severely overworked in relation to the pay, especially starting out.

Cons

Ability to get more work due to being good at your job rather than making it an even workload accross the board, pay and titled are based on being male vs female and whos backside you kiss to more than experience and ability to do your job, management plays favorites with worthless employees, Departments that are not revenue generating do not have a team approach, Company atmosphete is too corporate, HIGH STRESS AND HOUR EXPECTATIONS

Pros

There are some good people who work there. There are a lot of food days. Good downtown Omaha location.

Cons

People who do their job get more work and really get taken advantage of (nights, weekends, holidays). People that can't do their job get hired assistants so 2-3 people end up doing the job of 1 qualified person. A lot of people seem to have gotten their jobs through connections not via their qualifications. There is no promoting from within. Raises/promotions don't really happen unless you threaten to quit. A lot of contractors in the IT department make it difficult to work with the same people on problems. HR is sadly the most unfriendly / least helpful department. For example one girl's manager called her stupid and shoved the chair she was sitting in. She told HR, and then walked out when they were unwilling to take any action in regards to the incident. There are several similar stories.
