Pros

At this point there are NO pros

Cons

The current leadership of the above referenced department is horrific. The upper management including a newly hired manager will belittle you, talk down to and nothing you do will EVER be good enough. 8 people have left or have been let go in the last 12 months (not normal). If upper management does not get what they want or they feel attacked, they will definitely lash out until the other party (or department) surrenders, apologizes or admits they were wrong! Upper management lies and gossips about other team members in 1 on 1's (this behavior is coming from the executive level). Retaliation is real and it all gets ignored. We've attempted to provide feedback but are continually ignored. This current leadership is weak and they are using fear, guilt, shame, punishment and manipulation in their attemp to gain compliance and control. THEY ARE BULLIES. This behavior has become so toxic the team is struggling....the ENTIRE team is struggling. The integrity once had has been severely severed.

Pros

The pay is decent and there are some very skilled people working in the department.

Cons

The workloads are unrealistic at times particularly when someone is out of office for an extended period of time. Month end tends to be very busy and you will be expected to work additional hours most days if you are salaried. Management attitude shifted in the last few years. Performance expectations are very subjected and higher ratings are gated across the organization with the highest level being essentially out of reach for non leadership positions. Many talented people have recently left the department in a short period of time causing workloads to be redistributed rather than seeking new staff in a timely manner. A large number of key department processes sit with a single person with minimal at best documentation of their procedures. You may be expected to reverse engineer some of the annual or quarterly processes with minimal guidance after seeing the process one once or twice.
