Bureaucracy at every level

Pros

Big challenging environment, plenty of overtime.

Cons

Way too many management levels in IT all filled with ex-techies who believe they are still on the ball. Leads to not trusting the people who's job it is to be the best there is, and every manager purely worried they're going to upset their own.

Pros

Digital Hub has some real talent Nice office space

Cons

Glaring lack of senior/management level experience in real world digital strategy causes confusing and often misleading direction. Blind refusal to accept anything other than repackaging e-commerce strategy as a catalyst to success results in stale work at a production level. Innate fear of change means digital innovation isn't nurtured, resulting in wasted time and more importantly, wasted talent on a sobering level. Morale among the real talent is at rock bottom as a result of the above. Insular culture among senior-management, creating an impasse of naivety and resistance in the face of anyone proposing unfamiliar solutions.

Pros

If you like behaviorism and people taking the Myers-Briggs too seriously, this is your place.

Cons

Don't expect any kind of connection with the real world.
