Business outlook
Pros
Good compensation, stable industry, a pension, generous paid time off if you can afford to take it, great location. Big-company technology in a small company forces staff to have multiple skills. After the multiple rounds of cuts, IT is getting more efficient in many areas. Management in some areas are excellent.
Cons
80% of the work is done by 20% of the staff. Very difficult to get promoted, priorities shift daily, long term strategic planning next to impossible, and many highly paid / highly titled employees in the technology planning area don't pull their own weight. Working hours very stressful. 6-day work weeks are common.
