Pros

Friendly coworkers Team recognition Work/life balance Good benefits, including credits for continuing education

Cons

Short staffing with an increased workload Financial struggles put a strain on resources Difficult to get approval for hiring new FTEs, even for backfilling an existing role Little to no upward career movement due to current budget restraints Year-end bonuses are non-existent The yearly cost of living salary adjustment does not keep up with the rate of inflation
