Decent Pay, Employees Not Treated Well

Pros

The pay is great for administrative support positions. The 401k company match is very high at 10%. When I left HR was finally starting to work on ways for employees to develop and improve professionally.

Cons

Employees are treated like they are replaceable and are not appreciated, no matter how good a performer they are. The philosophy of senior management and HR is to do more with less....which puts a lot of stress on employees. The morale is low. Employees do not feel appreciated.

Pros

Enjoy the flexible hours and the work is different everyday. Leadership is hands off and lets employee take ownership of their work. LES also provides a lot of professional development opportunities.

Cons

Does not take full advantage of employees past experiences and tends to pigeon hole employees in one career field.
