Pros

Nice office. Good place to apply for entry level IT position. They look for good communication skills. Technical skills are secondary.

Cons

In recent years, newly established IT culture is based on favoritism focused on promoting well connected individuals with little experience and delivering poorly executed projects. Results are obvious: low morale across all teams, unparalleled level of bureaucracy and politics, disengaged workforce waiting to be replaced by startups top management is building, best talent leaving or marginalized. Department has several managerial oddities such as helpdesk managers running network infrastructure or project managers responsible for security and architecture. Many tactical yet very expensive solutions being deployed such as physical desktops for remote access in the era of the virtualization or over engineered yet underperforming network infrastructure. Highly not recommended to experienced IT candidates interested in worthwhile contributions and career path.
