Pros

Decent pay, nice office and location

Cons

Management in the BSA department is horrible, they will treat you with complete disrespect and you will receive constant threats even when you do exactly what you are told to do. Interrogation and micromanagement is 100% their forte. Multiple people in the department would quit due to this treatment and then management would try and scare everyone into thinking they were fired. It was the worst working environment I’ve ever experienced and I would caution anyone who applies to this department to look elsewhere.
