Cons

-Very narrow environment (promotions only occur with those who are well liked) -Very behind the times (technology used is outdated, flexible work environments are not really flexible) -Poor training for management (management has NO clue how to get the best out of their people) -Constant turnover and furloughs -Pay never really improves (raises have not been granted in a very long time)

Pros

Won’t fire anyone, know how much you’re going to make.

Cons

Bad raises. Job growth is very uncommon. Management is incompetent from top to bottom. Not enough people and too much work. Nepotism is rampant in this organization. Unqualified people are promoted. Career bad apples are left without being fired or disciplined. First level managers are useless. They at too much red tape to do the most basic things. Upper levels are arrogant and hard headed.hiring has been frozen for a year yet somehow the ‘bud club’ is promoting people constantly who are in their ‘inner circle’. Hiring actions are super sketchy, names are dropped for specific people to be hired etc. It’s crazy
