Pros

Position is home-based. Great benefits, pay, and staff. Upper management recognizes the organizational problems and taking steps to fix them.

Cons

Too many metrics and systems that need to be checked and manually updated on a regular basis. On paper the workload is not bad but when you add in all of the manually checks & updates, it leads to a ton of work and frustration. There is a lot of staff turnover resulting in long hours covering work for the people who have left.

Pros

Great benefits including PTO, health care and other benefits.

Cons

Very much a brother-in-law feel when it comes to promotions and praise. If you aren't in the cool club, you will be shunned and left out. Management also makes business decisions without understanding the niche part of the various industries.
