In IT, too many levels of bureaucracy
In IT, too many levels of bureaucracy
Benefits are good.
Focus is on new employees.
Annual new hire 'classes' (NAPAs) are hired and trained together.
Far too many levels of management.
Promotions are predicated on a corporate structured 'to-do' list rather than on job performance.
The review process is determined from the top down, forcing each employee into a predetermined number of rating slots.
Company profits used to relate directly to the bonus structure, but this is no longer the case.
Move your management direction into the 21st Century. Old-school methods are keeping young talent from rising to meet their potential. The IT career growth path is ridiculous. An employee is either an Analyst or a Vice President, with Senior Vice Presidents holding management positions.

I was approached by a third-party recruiting company that forwarded my resume to GS. I was told there would be a CoderPad interview followed by multiple rounds onsite. The process took about a week or so to get to the CoderPad round.

I applied through a recruiter for a contract position. The interview process is only one round, a direct face-to-face interview. The interview was easy; it was purely technical, mainly concentrating on previous projects I had worked on.
