Pros

Very well-organized and disciplined organization. Steady performers and no corporate identity crisis like some of their competitors.

Management team stuck in 2000's - antiquated views, short-sighted. They don't want to spend money needed to upgrade systems and processes.

Pros

I was working for an FSP under this company in New Jersey . it gave me the ability to learn a task and they have really good training . The ability to work under an operational manager and also a line manager was great because I was able to talk to both of them . Communication was great and it was a teamwork .

Cons

Unfortunately the contract had ended due to either Co bid or the FSP . Salary was rather low about $20,000 less . There was no real maternity leave . The health care benefits sort of bad. due to covid we had to take a salary reduction Which is rather annoying and the reason why I had left for other positions . We were forced to take PTO within a given period of time and while I understand this is a trying time I wish I was given more opportunities to succeed
