Pros

Non-rev (space available, no guarantee) flights

Cons

The CIO firmly believes in a work-from-work policy.

There is very little vacation time since they refuse to combine vacation and sick time.

Pay is non-competitive because of the demand for the free flight benefit.

Hours are long, especially since COVID caused a large number of employees to leave.

The CIO told the IT community that if employees are unhappy here, then maybe they should ask themselves if this company is right for them.

It's an old-fashioned company stuck in old ways.

Advice to Management

Words of affirmation only work on employees so long without action.
