Not Ideal for Skilled “Women of Color”

Pros

The physical work environment is decent. Admin is constantly purchasing new workspace furniture.

Cons

I worked in the T&I/Technology department. This department is extremely racist/colorist. To a lesser extent, they are sexist and ageist. They welcome with open arms, males who (appear to be) middle aged and older, and preferably white. If you even look like a woman younger than 30, brace yourself for the ageist comments and hardships; and if you are a “woman of color”, you should run far away. The icing on the cake: T&I management are habitual liars and gossipers. They also partake in actions that are knowingly unethical. Hiring committees don’t often come across amazing talent. A lot of the hires I seen were mostly people who knew someone, and lesser-experienced folks who had 1 or 2 key skills on their resume, but performance level was below average. A lot of these people have the analytical skills of a middle schooler. Anyone who exceeds that is labeled a problem.

Pros

great benefits great work environment

Cons

Good ole boy system. No moves up in the ranks unless you know someone in higher positions. Politics...Politics..Politics. No matter your education or level of expertise, most advancements are based on popularly.

Pros

Great benefits. A lot of data and challenges.

Cons

Chronic lack of technical talent and aging applications and infrastructure. You are at the mercy of the public to approve new positions, which will never happen.
