Pros
Big system, lots of work to do because they run lean, and they took great care of employees after natural disasters.
Cons
Good old boys club. The worst kind, too. Lots of married couples and tons of conflicts of interest. They weaponize employee engagement and use it against their employees. If you do not drink the Kool-Aid, leaders see it as something wrong with you, and look for ways to separate you from the company, instead of looking inward at their own contributions to the problems. Doing new and innovative things is fun, but the fun factor quickly evaporates when one realizes the leadership team does not trust ideas from "outsiders". If you are not from New Orleans, you never will be, and your ideas will not be respected. Pay was terrible. 401k/403b was a joke. Get everything in writing or they will not keep their word. Systemic racism is still a problem and they lead people like it's the 1980's.
