Pros

Paycheck while you’re looking for another job Can do literally nothing and blame everything on others

Cons

Poor facilities and even worse ownership and management No clear business strategies Backstabbing is common place at all levels Senior Management inspire no confidence Software applications are based on outdated and irrelevant concepts Poor emphasis on quality No appetite for disciplined planning and execution Nonexistent communication to employees - says it all Hard working, high performers that don’t play politics and brown-nose are ignored no matter what their level Unhealthy anxious vibe throughout Poor infrastructure and processes

Thank you for providing this feedback. I am truly sorry that you felt your experience here was so negative. It is difficult to read your review and compare it to the many very talented and dedicated people who work hard every day to serve our customers. We know that we are not perfect, and the management team is committed to improving. In 2018 our top priorities are People and Performance. We are investing in employee development and better communication, collaboration and execution. I wish you the best of success in your new position. I hope that you find the type of company that meets your expectations and that you can make a difference in the world. Thank you, Ron

Pros

I work for the Integrity Plus division of New Century. Management takes care of you if you show results and willingness to get results and want to learn. Excellent use of activities to reward employees during the year. New office location Growing company that has a great business plan and goals Professional, relaxed, dedicated work environment that is open to input from employees

Cons

Going through growing pains internally (which happens during growth spurts) Make bonuses once a year and everyone on the same schedule.

Pros

Great scrum team - i enjoyed the people I worked with and the general atmosphere in the software development production floor Good work-life balance - as long as I did my job in 40 hours I would punch out consistently at 5. Sprint requirements were usually reasonable and not a 'death march' CEO is a well-meaning guy and seems to generally care about his people

Cons

Compensation far below market value (the industry hurting made this worse) Feeling of no advancement opportunity Very little room to grow / innovate Petty office politics and management styles double speak - saying one thing and not executing toxic employees allowed to effect the development process despite ubiquitous concerns expressed Somewhat inflexible work schedules - would have to report every time I wanted to work from home, even if it was for an hour doctor's appointment Lacks automated testing and antiquated quality controls in the agile process
