Good people, bad management

Pros

Nice, caring professionals to work with.

Cons

Management is untouchable. GW keeps loosing truly good employees because of bad managers but they won't touch the managers. I have seen it happen over and over during the years I've worked for them. It's a shame - and it costs a lot for the organization.

Pros

Working with different people almost every day in a constructive manner; friendly workplace atmosphere; a sense of purpose... all adds up to make the day worthwhile.

Cons

The salary is not very motivating; there is limited room for career growth, but not within the organization - rather, within the more narrowly focused programs. Other than that, there is not much to complain about.
