Pros

When you find a sector of the organization that's truly serious about utilizing your talents, recognizing your efforts and really investing in your growth as both an employee and an individual, it can truly be a fantastic place to work.

Cons

On the flip side of that, woe be unto you who have the misfortune of working for someone who shouldn't be managing a land fill, let alone an office full of people. It's a crapshoot - and your odds of "winning" are about as good as playing Powerball.

Pros

Hours are early enough to miss traffic in the mornings and be home while it is still daylight out.

Cons

-They pay slave like wages -They scam billions of dollars with there non-profit BS and take from millions of seniors who are already in a tough spot -They only hire temps for most of the work in remission -If you have a question, good luck on any of the managers helping you -They have people who have been there for 3 months training new employees -Don't ask the question of why? because that will cause your termination -They don't give employee proper storage for there belongings yet they don't want employees to bring their belongings into work...this is a disadvantage to those who either ride their bikes into work or take public transportation and for those who drive vehicles, their belongings, like their purses, are subjugated to those people who are coming and going from the parking lot The employee turn around rate is close to 10+ employees being let go a week and 10+ new employee starting (tax credits much?)

Pros

Benefits are decent. Work life balance was fair. Compensation was good. Wonderful group of co-workers, hard working, decent people for the most part.

Cons

Beware your career. Uncertain future with many challenges. There will be much more outsourcing to come. Evaluations, reviews, and hiring practices are biased with many EEO issues.
