Leadership is lacking from the top down

Security engineer

Business Outlook

Pros

Stable job. They love to boast about not having laid of employees. Since they use a large contractor force they are able to let them go without touching their employees.

Cons

Lower level management and Directors are terrified of the C level. Salaries are low and their are no bonuses or compensation for completing business objectives. Salary levels are defended in meetings as being in line with average field salaries. This is achieved by using basic titles such as "Systems Analyst" or Security Engineer". Since these are very generic titles compared to your job functions it allows CHS to compete on paper.

Overall a good experience.

Business Outlook

Pros

Strong company. Great leadership at certain levels. Hard working individuals can be recognized and rewarded if properly marketed by management. Good amount of holidays. CEO awards an extra holiday around Christmas. Pay could be better, but other benefits do help a little.

Cons

Some of executive leadership is weak, ineffective, and stuck in old ways. Some lower level management is useless and simply a hinderance to productivity. No bonus structure for non-management.

Worst place to work, operates on a small scale, within a large scale environment.

Business Outlook

Pros

You will receive a very basic healthcare experience.

Cons

Be hided on technologies, do not offer compensation (bonuses, or raises) for meeting company goals. It's time for C-level management to step down, if the company wish to have longevity. There are little to non training opportunities.
