Pros

Good people to work with. Nice Cafe. Good vacation and sick time amounts. Yearly bonus.

Cons

Lift way more than the 25 lbs they say. Company fights your workers comp case and doesn’t pay out on it. The boss in this department complains every time you ask for any time off. Low pay for handling many different tasks in addition to your own. Boss doesn’t communicate whatsoever and will write you up even if you provide the required Doctors notes. Bathrooms are absolutely filthy and disgusting. HR protects managers only even if they pretend to be there for the employee. Boss goes out of their way to block you from further promotion/advancement within the company.

Pros

Good experience with my boss and management, lots of freedom in managing daily tasks and responsibilities, and various opportunities for skill growth and problem solving. Helpful HR team, excellent benefits, and excellent coworkers.

Cons

IT Service Desk did not provide access to me for critical programs for several weeks. Since MKS is a matrix organization, certain functions and responsibilities spill into different departments. Other departments may have other issues.
