Pros

Work/life balance was nice with a 9/80 schedule and then all of the government holidays plus vacation & sick time. Profit sharing and 401k as well as the basic medical, dental, vision benefits were also nice.

Cons

Unless you're a part of the good ol' boys club, you're never going to get anywhere here. No career path, no training & requests for training are denied because they were seen as "a waste of time". Lots of retired military especially in management positions so "barking orders" to their subordinates was the standard way of giving direction. I knew less than 2 weeks in that I had made a huge mistake. Human resources was also less than helpful if you needed them for any reason so was the "anonymous hot line" to report harassment and unethical behavior.

Pros

My pros are my manager and team coworkers. Outside of that not really a fan. I do well at what I do.

Cons

Honestly, ever since new management has come for the upper VPs and directors, a lot has shifted for the negative. Feels very micromanaging when we were told we were doing fine at home and there was no reason to have us come back in the office. Now suddenly we’re being forced back to the office. Other departments and I don’t really get along because there’s a bunch of petty people just trying to get others in trouble and all I’m doing is trying to do my job. Where I am at, everyone just talks all day and then complains about how much work they have.
