Pros

The company acknowledge that you may end up harmed, so they'll offer nice benefits.

Cons

if you have been at a specific facility for a while, it's hard to advance without kissing butts... And they pacify inmates and women actually have prison babies. That becomes Lt.

Pros

CC Uses cutting-edge Technologies, which is good experience for resume building; many of the Teams are collaborative; interesting work and you can believe in company goals.

Cons

Director and Manager level mgmt at corporate here do not provide guidance on projects. There is a lot of turnover on data projects because new employees are thrown into the deep end and then just blamed if results are not as expected. CC really needs more hands-on project oversight. There are also behavioral and anger issues with a couple long-time ppl as well, and this is both exhausting and (sometimes) outright humiliating. They need to treat new people better.
