Business Outlook

Pros

Work From Home, No Commute, Dont have to invest in a work wardrobe, good thing because I can't afford the aforementioned.

Cons

Low pay, sad merit increases, dwindling bonuses, they've done away with all of the perks. Increased workload, unlimited vacation time that no one has time to use. Upper management is lining their already deep pockets by taking away from the rest of us little people. Poor processes which are constantly changing. Management doesn't listen to their employees when we say we're drowning. Cannot ask for help from fellow colleagues. The list goes on and on and on.

ACOE in Plymouth Meeting, PA - Horrible Culture. Uninspiring. Bureaucratic and Political. Meaningless Work.

Associate director

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Ability to work remotely. Salary. Good air conditioning in the office...?

Cons

Inept leadership, ACOE in particular. Stay far away from this group. Lack of meaningful work. If you like building spreadsheet calculators/crud apps, IQVIA is your company. Terrible culture of politics, depressing energy abound, lack of communication, low-EQ employees, uninspiring & meaningless work. 45 MINUTE LONG STANDUPS. "We use X here because that's how it's been done in the past" Giant corporate culture of cubes, water-cooler smalltalk, apathetic employees, and a severe lack of interesting people that you'll be working with on a daily basis. Need to login to web system to reserve a desk every day that you come into the office. Bureaucracy, constraints on developers, github blocked on the corporate network, outsourced work.
