Avantages
It's a huge company with 3 primary verticals. Deeply old school retail roots - supply chain & coupon settlement services. If that's your bag, there's a lifetime of knowledge & opportunity here to wrap your head around. There are also some wonderful people who work here. Although there's pressure and stress, I have never felt taken advantage of or chewed up. Balance is good.
Inconvénients
Too much digital bluster. There is SO MUCH potential for this area & group, but not enough humility to be honest and say to clients "hey, we think we have a great idea here, but we need your help to build it. Won't you come along and help us create this infrastructure you all have been begging for for years?" That, to me, is an honest, credible and sellable message. Instead, our message and pitch is full of arrogance and bluster: we are the best, we are the smartest, we rule at everything we do. That sets a pretty high bar for clients - so if you fail and can't deliver (if the product/service doesn't do what we said it would do), your credibility is shot. So much squandered potential with clients, it breaks my heart. We spend WAY too much time trying to look cool and powerful, and not enough time focusing on building products that actually work (as awesomely as we say they do).
