Pros

Benefits mainly, there is not a lot of pros. It’s a job for now.

Cons

Low salary for experience. No management support. Your position is often resented by government employees you have to work with. You aren’t allowed keys to office or office building. No opportunity to advance.

We are sorry to read that you do not feel supported by your supervisor. I encourage you to reach out to your HR Generalist in regards to your concerns with your management support team.

Not great when the rubber hit the road

Pros

Provides great services to the military and families. A great group of people to work with despite strange management decisions.

Cons

lost their largest government contract. Not one management level person or anyone who was involved in the loss was let go. Instead, lower level workers were cut while NUMEROUS contract folks were kept on to work in business development. Not impressed. Not the way to do business. Low wages, low raises, little to no room for advancement, crisis mode prevails. Tout work/life balance but do not put that into practice. Micro-managers who are over compensated abound.

Pros

can have great co-workers both within department and in others depending on location/turnover- get to work with lots of different people (family members, service members, retirees, etc). have the occasional opportunity to do stuff off site- outreach, etc. little to no daily stress. don't take any work home.

Cons

high turn over of team members, low salary- difficult to create change- boys club of supervisors- poor accountability- many team members get away with not doing their job, lack of punctuality, skipping out when supervisor is gone, etc. little extrinsic motivation to go above and beyond when co-workers who do bare minimum or below that are treated the same. no real evaluation process of employees. mandatory 1 hour lunch break. constantly moving boxes/"working parties." have to do extra things like man the phones of admin on their lunch break or when they are busy or swamped yet little to no reciprocation when career service team needs assistance or coverage. little to no room for career growth- unable to move into management because of lack of opportunities for supervision/leadership. i would only recommend this job to someone if they are going to use it as a stepping stone or resume filler while they work on other endeavors, attend school, live in san diego temporarily, etc. or for retirees. this is a job not a career and shouldn't be viewed as a profession that will provide career growth or profit. Zeiders knows that and that is why the salary & availability for growth won't change because so many military spouses are looking for work that they don't have to try hard to find candidates nor do much to to convince them to join their company.
