Pros

Benefits good not great; less and less each year Some great middle managers Some flexibility in work hours and working from home

Cons

Changes occurring too often, too quickly and without a defined plan. Culture has done a 360 over the last couple years; great to obsolete. Losing a lot of good people. Most of the new opportunities, roles, jobs were not available for all employees to review or apply to.

Pros

Decent pay. Not much else.

Cons

No lunch break, no breaks in general, can’t go to the bathroom for hours on end, the managers’ daughter gets special treatment because her mother is in charge. Constant criticism and unfair treatment.
