      Pros

      Great benefits, lots of PTO

      Cons

      Your work experience will depend on your location. Overall, they are afraid to fire or improve performance in ineffective employees, so the remaining employees have to work around them.

      Pros

      Co-workers are team players and most are very friendly and pleasant to be around; Public varies by branch but most are nice and grateful for service provided; Benefits package for full-time is great; Salaries are so-so unless you are management

      Cons

      Management at branches, administration and basically throughout system is unapproachable, vindictive and often unprofessional; HR is clueless and often says one thing and does another; Policies are not universally applied, it's all whether they like you or not; Some great people get passed over for promotions while inexperience, incompetence and even meanness is rewarded; No benefits for part-timers
