Pros

There are great benefits (medical, dental, vision) but also Tri-State contributes to my 401K and my pension plan. It's hard to find employers who do that anymore. I have worked at Tri-State for 3 years and I am seeing so much improvement from when I started. In the last year a new department called Organizational Development was created with the mission of improving the organization. They have been great with updating policies and practices. Also they are helping make Tri-State more competitive with other organizations. I can't wait to see where this company is at in 5 years!

Cons

There are some employees who have worked at Tri-State for 20 years +. While this is good because it shows people love working here, sometimes they can be stuck in their ways. Being a younger employee it has been an obstacle convincing some employees that processes can be improved from 10 years ago. Like I mentioned in my Pro's I believe the organization is already showing large improvements by hiring employees who are open to change.

Pros

Good benefits. Hard to get fired. Opportunities to learn if so inclined. Some great lower level people who make the place go. Find a manager and play the political game. You won’t have to work. Some employees have light workloads and can get away with not doing much

Cons

Upper management is disingenuous. HR takes the side of management in all matters. Political environment with cliques. Dysfunctional practices and an inability to hear feedback. Self defeating practices. They increased the amount of upper management by maybe 50% during Highleys tenure while cutting down on employees and benefits to cut rates which did not happen. No pension for new hires. Have lost numerous members due to exits and more have announced. They plan to supplement loss of members to serve data centers. Overall not a good recipe for success
