• Starting pay is good.
• Nice starting jobs from a new college graduate.
• You can learn a lot and work with smart people.

• After several years work becomes boring and not being challenged. Discussed with yearly review with manager but no progress made.

• Politics are intense and some people promoted twice in a year because they are favorites.

• Requested several times to go weekend support but once you don't come then it takes against you.

• Yearly increase is very low, although you had outstanding ratings. Some yearly salary increase is below inflation rate.

• Immediate manager becomes personal before exit and quote "if you ever come back here then I won't hire you". But after working 3 months on a different company I got an unsolicited request from that same manager saying if I could work back to the team. That is a disaster and I never looked back!

Senior management seems to be doing great but some of the smaller management team seems does not know what they are doing.
