Major time commitment changes without regard to employee ability or willingness to fulfill them
Pros
Good compensation, great benefits/perks, and plenty of overtime. If you are willing to move to climb the corporate ladder, you can climb quickly with the right degree(s) and work history.
Cons
As a member of the service organization, I feel as if I am a tool, a worn tool...not necessarily a favorite tool. I am a tool that will be used until it breaks, then I will be replaced. When I started, it was not this way. I felt valued. I spent time with my family. I felt my opinion mattered. Now, there is no recovery time, no down time. Very few days off. Days off are spent in a hotel, away from family. What kind of a life is this? When will I break? Do you want me to break? It is confusing, because at one point, this was my very favorite job. I feel betrayed.
