Pros

The co-workers are fantastic Lots of hands on experience Benefits are good Lots of resources to complete tasks Nothing else is good

Cons

Lots of micromanaging (lack of trust) No work life balance, mandatory overtime Little room for promotion Low pay Too many metrics and not focusing on the real issues Not open to suggestions to better the company Urgent things are not completed until they are super urgent Lack of employees makes for a large workload Say anything that isn’t yes and it’s grounds for being fired You don’t get a choice in shift

Pros

It was fun getting trained in new techniques, but they did not prioritize training. The bottom line is all they care about. There were some great coworkers there too. I hope they find a workplace where they are truly valued, cause this is not it.

Cons

I loved working here at first. Then, the good people kept leaving and management became worse. Micromanagement is rampant and new red tape changes to software keep things moving slower and slower. There is no trust in your abilities as an analyst. Management is extremely incompetent and they use fear and bullying through intimidation to deliver results. They will only promote you if they like you as a person. Hard work never gets rewarded, and promotions are unbalanced. Safety, empathy, and quality are taken as suggestions while their antiquated SOPs are considered the highest dogma. Higher turnover rate than most restaurants. Managers talk trash about their employees to other employees. No one who works at the analyst level here is mentally ok. The heartache is not worth the low pay. Watch your back.
