Vantaggi
OT is generally available, good if you want to put in hours. Team members across the board are polite and helpful, easy to get along. Old designers are very knowledgeable and will share knowledge most of the time - unfortunately most will retire within the next 5-10yrs.
Svantaggi
Management/team leads are mostly made of yes-men who don’t like to make decisions, leading to constant paralysis in projects across the board. Or, they constantly play devil’s advocate to see who’s smarter without actually making a real point. Pay levels are vast and severely inconsistent with skill sets, efficiency, and ability. You make more money as a public school teacher looking at raises. Raises are sub-inflation (1-2%) even during normal times for a solid performance rating (not counting recent high inflation numbers). Team leaders are too afraid to assign any rating higher than Solid Performer. Only way to get actual raises is to leave the company and come back. Upper management say work from home didn’t work without getting proper software or hardware, and concluded it “doesn’t work”. So many young people left there’s almost no one under 30yrs old. Husky IMS/Technologies has degraded over the last 5-10yrs and currently upper management hasn’t changed course with their strong-man attitude.
