Pros

Benefits are decent and there are telework positions

Cons

All positions are now hourly, HR has a high turn over and run a “friends and family” environment. Complaints are not taken seriously and I have unfortunately witnessed a series of retaliation related events in various departments... specifically and most recently from the current CIO, COO and HR Reps which has been a huge disappointment. Very uncomfortable gossip culture. Managers are not held accountable for bad performance, dependent mistakes or unacceptable behavior. Very little career growth opportunity.
