Vantaggi
Smart offices, flexible working, some very good people. The business has received significant investment in a growth area and could provide career opportunities for someone with the right kind of corporate mindset.
Svantaggi
Worked for ITS for about a year. It seemed the company was experiencing problems of being a small business that had grown quickly. ITS had received a lot of investment and was burning money. A significant amount going to external contractors, often with a very friendly relationship with those at ITS in control of the budgets. ( Half a million per year for 3 developers to work on their portal. Over a million had gone on a salesforce implementation that equated to around 20k per user. ) It felt there was significant 'empire building' going on, where management just wanted a big team. Myself , like other new staff I spoke to, never really felt part of the business. I got used to being totally ignored when asking for information (it became a running joke), and really struggled to make any impact. I frequently, along with my junior staff, pretty much had nothing to do. In addition, they had an overeager HR department who frequently assigned patronising compulsory online training courses to you ( driver safety? for home workers? really? ). They also had a hilarious inability to park correctly at the head office. Every day a company wide email about someone parking inconsiderately. Ultimately I left because I was being asked to scrutinise work from external consultants who were being paid more than double what I was, which I found insulting.
