Pros

I worked with quite a few people who I developed great lifelong relationships. I wasn't afraid to volunteer for other opportunities and was always encouraged to present ideas for areas of improvement. I just wish there was more opportunity for advancement.

Cons

While I enjoyed my time with most coworkers it was often highly political environment where favorites were obvious. I felt I was held back for doing a job well, but they had no one to backfill if I was promoted. Unfortunately it seems they are in the business lately to offshore much of the business processes and downsizing in the US.

Pros

I loved my job and my coworkers, and the company's health benefits were outstanding. Leaving wasn't an easy decision, but it was the right one.

Cons

I had a toxic manager who micromanaged everything—checking time reports, tracking lunch breaks, and monitoring every minute away from your desk. They often sent multiple emails to communicate a single point because they struggled to communicate clearly. High-visibility projects were consistently given to favorites, while the rest of the team was overlooked. They were also frequently condescending in team huddles and meetings. Based on my experience, they were never taught how to lead people effectively, and I'm genuinely surprised they're still in a management role.
