Pros

Other than pay, the benefits are good.

Cons

Horribly mismanaged from the top down. Understaffed and overworked employees are expected to provide work within almost laughably small amounts of time. Locals are replaced with Spanish newcomers on a consistent basis with most other jobs farmed out to contractors. Management positions also get filled with overseas employees. Turnover and inexperience are everywhere as a consequence, leading to confusion and more mismanagement. There is extreme confusion among employees on a daily basis. Employees are open with their discontent and over the years, the environment has continued to get more toxic as the job force has been cut only to be replaced with loyal employees arriving from overseas. Compensation does not reflect market values. Avoid if possible. The future is the axe of regulators and the government.

Pros

Due to insufficient internal resources & high turnover, there’s frequent openings that allows for you to take on new roles. This can be an ideal scenario for recent graduates to obtain experience & find what role best fits their skills. Despite the lack of resources, thanks to the numerous contractors, whom primarily are retired former employees, there’s still a wealth of knowledge available. The benefits in terms of the 401K & vacation are also competitive with the industry.

Cons

Based on the timeline of the current reviews, it’s highly unlikely that they’re all authentic. Due to inexperienced management, a lack of communication & non-competitive salaries, all departments have suffered significant turn over for the past several years.
