I could go on for years about the cons of working at this place. First and foremost the conditions in side the room that you will be working in are terrible. There is a constant amount of people who don't know proper hygiene so because the room is completely enclosed, there's a 90% chance you will be getting some kind of cold or sickness. Because the turnover rate is so high, and I mean at least one person quitting a week high, there's a constant influx of people who are not properly trained but just throw it in there because they need a body to do work, waiting too many miscommunication errors down the line of command. Not to mention the people that have been there longer have to fix those mistakes, taking away from their own time to do their own work. There is a huge divide between upper management and the normal employees. You will have upper management telling you how hard they will try to work to make things a lot more livable and doable, but in reality it almost never follows through. This past August the very last week was mandatory overtime plus a mandatory Saturday, and they also offered to you the option of working on Sunday. This was announced the week that that started. So as you can see, they offer little to no timeframe on when you need to be working overtime. Let's not forget the fact that we are constantly put to a very very high goal that is almost unachievable every single month, and because we are behind on that goal, overtime is a constant. Throughout the whole time that I worked there, I only worked a normal 8-hour shift for one month. There's very little room for advancement, and more often than not when you switch positions and you do not enjoy what you are doing, they do not offer any type of resolution to find you a different job. I cannot tell you how many people that are still currently work there are stuck in their position simply because they are not allowed to go anywhere else. The HR department is an absolute joke, good luck trying to get an appointment with them after you email them and they fill you in. And all they're going to tell you is that what you're asking for is out of their realm of duties.

The company likes using taglines such as "We our making a positive difference in Veteran's lives" to overshadow a lot of their shortcomings as far as treating their own employees go. Unfortunately this isn't really true. Since the company won the VA contract quite a few years ago they have yet to meet the required quality performance metrics for classifying documents. This is all because they are more concerned with pushing out as many pages per hour as possible rather than letting employees properly figure things out. The employees who strive for good quality are often fired for going too slow while the ones that break procedure are rewarded because it helps the bottom line. Many of us find this disturbing but we are unable to do anything about it under management.
