Lower pay scale, the pay is in "competitive" range but is on the low end.

This also overlaps into always having to do double-duty for empty positions or callouts Poor Training, There are no proper training programs in place for any position. Majority of SOP's are not followed or outdated Lack of cooperation between departments. Typically Managers have to get involves to make things happen cross different departments
