      Upper Management is Awful

      Pros

      Stability. Get to help people become successful with their employment goals. Meet interesting customers.

      Cons

      No raises. No realistic opportunity for advancement. Upper management based in Madison and Milwaukee are out of touch and will treat you awfully when things go sideways. If you speak out, you will get a target on your back. They do not value great employees doing the grunt work in the field offices. They believe they are above the law. Customers can get violent, and Madison will not support you or value your safety.
