Vantaggi

No thinking needed or wanted by managment

Svantaggi

IT management is grossly incompetent, dishonest and trivial. The people doing the work never get credit. IT creates, then amplifies small issues into big ones, then rides to the “rescue” . If you got a big problem, first question is gonna be, “is the work in the budget?” Ugh! It’s just crazy what IT does because they have no clue what to do. IT management’s catch phrase is “at the end of the day we work for the business”. By end of the day they must mean 4:59 PM. Don’t dare help the users if you want to keep working there. Much better to tell the Emperor they have “nice clothes”. Management not interested in the truth. Management is interested in running up bar tabs. NJ jobs are either going to NC, or to India. Met would rather have the "cheap and cluelss" rather than the skilled.

Vantaggi

Good support for new people managers were very helpful and always available

Svantaggi

Micromanage every second of your time; have to put in a request to go to the bathroom and wait for someone to grant it Expect you to put exceptions to your time after your shift ends on your own time Half hour lunch by the time I brought my lunch or heated my leftovers and went to the bathroom. I barely had time to wolf it down. Unrealistic call times Systems are horrible and crashing all the time expect you to be in at least 15 minutes before your shift unpaid to set up all the programs on your computer
