Pros

The benefits are good, but don't even come close to balancing out the lack of pay, chance for promotions, or growth in any aspect. I'm actively looking to leave do the recent management shifts or constant broken promises by managers.

Cons

Employees are well underpaid by industry standards. Only seeks to promote wealthy, older, white, typically male, employees. Has no desire to promote from within departments. Cannibalizes teams to reduce the staff that actually does the work so middle managers can get raises.

We're sorry to hear that you're so unhappy. We have a strong commitment to diversity, demonstrated by our CEO recently joining local and national efforts to address issues such as inclusion and pay equity in the workplace. We haven't seen any indication that particular groups of staff members aren't being promoted.

Pros

Management allows you to work independently with zero micromanaging. They are also flexible in allowing you to come in early/late and leave early/late, as long as you are completing your hours during the pay period.

Cons

There are so many tenured personnel that it can be hard to promote into management.
