Pros

Full time employment with benefits

Cons

In all of my years this is, by far, the most toxic and poorly run employer that I have been at. To be fair, most problems started years prior an acquisition but things have not improved under new ownership either. Many were hoping the acquisition would help clean house and give a fresh start but employees are still leaving in droves. The management and work culture here was inappropriate and an HR nightmare with too many incidents to count. Poor management made for inefficient processes and a culture that encouraged dishonesty and bullying while also drastically underpaying and short staffing high performing employees. Turn over rates and burn rates are very high and I would never encourage someone I care about to accept an offer in their newer Midwest offices.
