Pros

flexibility in schedule & pto

Cons

real estate operations saves overhead costs by reducing employees & taking on work that doesn't apply to us (reduction in IT staff = our group ends up doing all the work). We're running offices, doing reprographic work, then IT functions are dumped on us, and reception duties as well. Hard to cover all bases when you are just 1 person & your group used to be 7ppl and all the same work is still expected to be done.
