Pros

Good pay and good benefits.

Cons

The cons are BAD MANAGEMENT and the employees they let get away with being an absolute cancer to the department because they are close friends. Management and the favoritism they show are the main problems with all locations in Jacksonville, esp Deerwood. If the VP doesn't like you for whatever reason, it trickles down to the managers, whom are also the VP's close friends, then the passive aggressiveness begins and it is truly ridiculous and just sad. The VP's and department managers engage in constant rumors and gossip which keeps the moral low. Corporate will say in town hall meetings that favoritism and blackballing doesn't exist but if the majority of the employees are saying it across the board, then obviously there is a problem.

Pros

They treat people well overall. It's all about connecting to others to get anything done, so if you're great with networking and maintaining connections it's a good place to work. Honestly the kindest layoff I've ever experienced, including genuine internal support to find another job. Still doing meaningful DOI work, including some of the best friendly benefits out there.

Cons

If you don't have a highly specialized cyber security skill set or work at a main campus in Texas, Ohio, Delaware, New York or New Jersey don't expect to ever move up the ladder. Staying focused on goals OR successfully communicating strategy pivots seems to be beyond most MDs in Global Technology. They seem to be having a re-org problem at the moment. I had 5 managers in the last 365 days I was there, hardly time to get any work done and then challenged at the end to show impact or delivery, all you can do is shrug and say 'tell me how, when you moved me every 2 months?"
