      Pros

      Western is an absolutely terrific place to work. They're in a period of substantial growth in many ways, including the modernizing of their technology, and there is an incredible amount of opportunity for someone willing to get into the thick of it and help. Western is a supportive, trusting atmosphere in which you will feel empowered to guide your own schedules, tasklists, and development. You'll have people helping you every step of the way, but no micromanagement. My professional development was moved forward from day one, with employees encouraged to attend seminars and presentations at every opportunity. MY work was guided at my own discretion, and the only time someone was there to look over my shoulder was when I asked them to do so. Work/life balance is second to none at Western. Never have I worked with an employer so willing to stand behind their "sell" of themselves during the recruitment/interview process. Your life does not take a secondary level of importance at Western; instead Western becomes a part of your life, and the company is there to work with you when things need to be balanced out. I came in during a particularly hectic time in my personal life, and was met with nothing but the utmost support and understanding when I needed some flexibility to get things in order. Because of that support and trust, Western became one of my absolute priorities -- not because I had to, but because I wanted to. I can not recommend this company more. Especially if you have a chance to join the BA team in the Projects and Planning department.

      Cons

      As with any company undergoing growth of this nature, this may not be the company for you if you need a tasklist created for you every day. You need to be flexible and accommodating for how the business works. You will be expected to bend and flex with the company, and at times it can feel frustrating -- like you don't have a sense of direction -- but that sense of direction can be easily defined through a simple conversation with your manager. I don't consider it a con; perhaps better stated as a warning that this is not the place to work if you're looking for a rigid, static, and fully inclusive definition of your job.

      Pros

      Pay, work/home balance, telework capabilities, always busy, great benefits and friendly management from the top down.

      Cons

      The I.T. department is something to be desired. For the amount of talent in that department, the recurring issues shouldn't be happening. The serious workload dis-appropriation is always ignored, and the harder you work, the more work and less praise/respect you get. Certain departments have serious interpersonal problems that cause tension and make even the best employees not want to work, it's a known issue to middle management, but nothing gets addressed. When there is an issue with anything, other co workers, workflow, interpersonal issues or training, there is always a meeting but never anything that comes from them. The option for telework is there, but it's hard to obtain even though it's extremely beneficial for many employees.
