Pros

Logistics looks good on a resume, coworkers your age, health benefits, and the job doesn't take a lot of brain power.

Cons

Awful pay, 10 vacation days until you work there 5 years, only 9 holidays, incompetent supervisors/managers, favoritism plagues the workplace, promotions based on how long you've been there, the workplace lacks talent, and a terrible company culture.

Pros

good career advancement opportunities depending on your group, good work/life balance, no stack ranking of evaluations/reviews. we give merit increases, stock options for outstanding efforts, and end of year bonuses for outstanding efforts. fully paid health care for you and your family - you only pay the deductible and it's outstanding coverage! fully subsidized ORCA cards. Great people, great culture.

Cons

terrible vacation policy, no special perks like sodas or snacks (you want to give your team donuts, fork over your own money), no HR department makes hiring and employee grievance issues a real time and soul sucking endeavor as a Manager. incredibly inconsistent application of polices, if they even exist. pay is well below market for many desk-level positions, if salaries on glassdoor are remotely accurate. bonus structure is odd - you get a % of any increase of operating income (OI) over the same quarter the previous year, but your base salary is reduced drastically once you're put onto the bonus structure (and you have no choice to be on it). If the OI doesn't go up a hefty amount every quarter, you could stand to lose money vs. had you not been put onto the bonus program. In the IS department, you're so far removed from operations that it's not fair to tie your income to operating income... and those managers that slack off get the same piece of the bonus pie as you even if you work your butt off.
