I've heard pretty good things about them. They apparently have a good culture and good WLB. There's a bit of bureaucracy and upper management to deal with, but honestly I prefer those tradeoffs.

IT directors there usually make between $170k-$180k, not sure about in NJ though. Bureaucracy as someone else mentioned is an issue, but somewhat expected imo. Lot of old-school. traditional thinking over there.

Current employee. The above posts are true. It’s a great place to work but can be annoying with the levels of management. But the salary and work life is hard to beat. Let me know if I can help you in any way or share a referral.

I have a friend that works there! He said the wlb is great and he loves his team. Like E1 said above there can be politics but that feels like any place nowadays. Good luck!

Thanks Md1 - insurance companies titles are bit different for sure!

Thoughts on how SAP handled bonuses this year with Covid

I feel a little crazy saying this, but more money at this point doesn’t resonate. I see a ton of exit planning and boomerang threads here, but I’d take a 50% pay cut (or a 50% raise) for an exciting role. That’s totally privilege talking, but I just can’t imagine chasing extra money in PE or lateraling just for the money. No virtue signaling here at all. I actually worry on some level that I’m somehow a moron for not giving a thought to maximizing earnings.
