Vantaggi

-Location and a sprawling campus - Occasional events and parties - Latest technology setup - Training's - Good 401 K

Svantaggi

- There is a lot of diversity in the company but there are some really bad racist managers who pass comments, exploit and treat their employees horribly. It seems it is an acceptable behavior within the company as these people have been with company for 10-20 years in some cases. It leads to low morale, depression and can turn your life into hell. - Hyper aggressive work environment and bullying by these managers that is never heard of anywhere in the IT or the banking industry. - Brutal review process where managers have to fight each other and the one who beats up others in this fight gets a good review about their employee. Doesn't matter how hard you worked or what ever great thing you achieved, it all boils down to the teams you work with, how well your manager can fight them during the review process and the political equations. - Politically charged environment where teams gang up against other teams or person. - Age based discrimination. - Medical insurance is not up-to the mark and you pay lot of money out of pocket during visits. Dental insurance is worse.

Vantaggi

Pay can be decent compared to GovCon. Some people are a pleasure to work with. Other non-pay related incentives.

Svantaggi

Never heard more nonsensical topics during meetings; people sharing their sexual preferences, flaunting overly dramatic personal lifestyle decisions, diversity to the point of failure, etc. Hearing the term "white guilt" in a professional setting was, well, pretty unprofessional. Stack ranking for performance reviews is a mess. Someone has to have an "F" regardless of their performance because that is what their line of business is allotted. Be prepared to be held responsible for actions any Sr Leadership would just sweep under the rug under their own circumstances. If a manager doesn't like you, regardless of your productivity, you're toast unless you're able to find another LoB to support. HR / AR are just a check in the box and will most likely point you from one to the other and back again without resolving any issues. You'll find yourself curious as to what leadership does as they continue to scrape managerial responsibilities from their plate, to yours. Last but certainly not least; you may find yourself working hard on a project; nights and weekends, just in case that work life balance is feeling a little too perfect. Fret not, someone will surely assist in taking credit for the hard work you've put in. I'm sure none of these things will happen to you, though. Best of luck!
