Pros

The work itself is fairly simple and easy. They provide on the job training.

Cons

They don't place people in positions based on what they are interviewed for. You can apply for a certain position with years of experience, be told that you are being hired for that position, but when you actually go in for your first day, they put you in whatever position they need filles at that time. Even if it is a position making less money. Then they tell people that they have to "move up" to the position and pay they were initially told they would be starting at. This isn't a unique experience by any means...

Pros

Coworkers are the only thing that makes it bearable, they are great.

Cons

This place has been going downhill fast for at least the past 5 years. Management drives good employees off by treating them poorly and failing to acknowledge hard work, they are rewarded with more work and no reward. Mediocre employees seem to get more accolades bc they are not a “threat” to management. I can’t tell you how many hard workers who have left or are actively looking to leave because of poor management. Raises and promotions are minimal if at all so most positions are dead end jobs with little opportunity for advancement. This used to be a place where employees had long careers, but they are paying new employees substantially more so the employees that know the business and do a good job are leaving. There seems to be no desire for employee retention and everyone is disposable. The office politics are blantently evident. Promotions are based on friendships over merit. There is currently an office relationship of two upper level officials that is very unprofessional but HR will not enforce their own rules. The HR department is horrible, they are only there to protect management and do not care about the mistreatment of their employees. If you bring an issue to HR you are the problem, you might as well just find another job than try to address it with HR.
