Pros

Hands down the main reason to keep working here was the best medical/dental/vision benefits available.

Cons

Your experience will greatly vary based on your supervisor all the way up. I had some of the worst and the best supervisors during my time there. Terrible work/life balance. Only in recent years did they give sick leave or close on Christmas. If you are in an operations team expect to work most holidays. Expect to get an attendance occurrence if you are a minute late for work. Emergency in late or out early? Depends on your supervisor if they will work with you or not.

Pros

Great people, smart people. With new CEO, maybe things will get back

Cons

Been a horrible last 3 years. Non-stop re-offs, new leadership that cut everyone and brought in new people who don’t know anything. No clear priorities, no leadership.
