      Just a job

      Project administrator
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Most people are nice, lots of vacation days, flexible with hours, lots of "fun" things to participate in (United Way, Diversity, etc.)

      Cons

      Low salaries (60-70 for people in supervisor roles with MBA's and 10+ years experience), limited opportunites to go up any higher than supervisor, reviews are a joke (typically a percentage point or two for pay increases unless you are one of a handful), most people just happy to do the same job for years on end and just coast by, boring jobs, make mountains out of molehills, basically find one negative thing that you did and that becomes a huge deal on your review

      Pros

      Co-workers are great, work life balance really good, start off with plenty of time off, provide excellent benefits: health and continuing education. Can help with jump starting career

      Cons

      Poor pay - a known fact, takes years to move up within company, glass cleaning within co for many roles, average tenure is approximately 10 yrs., very slow adopters of new technology, no incentive to produce internal change.

      Pros

      Plenty of time off to work your second job. The young women who are routinely promoted over more qualified candidates tend to wear revealing clothes. You are awarded free movie tickets fairly often so you don't have to dip into your grocery money to go out. Convenient location so you don't have to drive your crappy old car to far. Awesome place for herd animals.

      Cons

      Honesty or original thinking will get you blackballed.
