Business Outlook

Pros

Recently launched "hybrid" work arrangement is nice and though people managers should be in the office 3 days per week, no real enforcement yet. Friendly co-workers are generally helpful when asked.

Cons

Culture of ICE has clashed at times with the old Ellie Mae culture. Since the acquisition, many key leaders and SMEs have left. Especially hit hard is the IT organization making help desk tickets and enhancements to existing applications difficult and time consuming. Functions are more siloed than they should be, often "throwing it over the wall" rather than collaborating together.

Pros

Pay, bonus, smart talented people who are good resources, work from home once week.

Cons

Non stop grinding work load with no direction, lack of leadership, people in manager roles who have no experience managing employees, constant micromanaging. Non existent training to improve your skills you are expected to be a robot whether your engineer or admin.
