Pros

If you are an IT professional, BOA is huge and you will have a lot of chances to learn new things.

They still offer working from home 100 percent of the time for some positions.

Most managers let you do your own thing and don't micromanage you.

Salary is fair, but increases are low each year.

Cons

It is difficult to maintain a healthy work-life balance. The IT environment is huge, but the number of people supporting it is limited. This results in weekend work as well as long hours at times. You have to be prepared to know a little about a lot of things since you will not be able to work in just one primary role.

Advice to Management

Remember that IT runs the business, and it isn't just a place to cut money from. I understand that IT is considered a cost center and not a profit center, but we still need money to be able to attract new talent and to keep people motivated. Training budgets are needed.
