Pay and benefits are pretty much as low as can be without being officially “below average”.
The amount of time it takes to have a simple request fulfilled is atrocious. Even if it is for an important project that directly effects funding. Even if you are following written guidelines, they are 90% out of date. The automatic attitude is “no not my job” or “no that’s not allowed “ with no explanation as to why or what the appropriate process is.
An INCREDIBLY reactive (vs proactive) environment. Levels and levels of managers can be aware of a major upcoming issue and everyone seems to just idly watch the collision. A ton of logical fallacies with policy. Makes for a super frustrating place to work.
Little to no promotions.
A quick web search will show they are moving 10k “fis family members’” jobs overseas.
