Pluspunten

The ability to work from home, although, suddenly it's looking that that won't be possible anymore.

Minpunten

Started at a decent salary, but year over year "there is no money for increases" Averages about 1% per year if you're lucky. Working at a higher level, and your manager agrees you should be bumped up to the next pay level, but upper management refuses to entertain adding to the number of higher level employees, so you are stuck at a lower level, being paid less money, than newer employees. It's very disheartening to be told outright that you should be at that higher level, but it's not going to happen. Understaffed and it's like pulling teeth to be able to add to headcount where desperately needed. Forget about replacing employees who have left the company or moved onto other roles within the company. Culture of layoffs every few months, that often tend to hit employees who have worked at the company between 10-15 years. Sometimes the eliminated positions are re-hired within weeks, the belief is they lay off, then hire at a lower salary. Very little opportunity to advance, to move between departments is often your only option. You will work harder and harder and do more and more, special projects, additional products to support etc... no promotion, and no raises. Very obvious favoritism, positions created for "special friends" often to completely unqualified people, who simply know how to talk the talk.

Pluspunten

I no longer work there.

Minpunten

They do not value their employees. I was told to never take more than a week off at a time, or it was proof you were not needed. They do not value their customers. Channels created to allow customer feedback to management were shutdown because management did not want to have to deal with customers upset about product issues caused by their cost cutting.
