Business Outlook

Pros

Inspiring and motivating senior leadership teams have created a positive work environment and overall culture.

Cons

There are many outstanding aspects to this organization. The downside is that it’s difficult to confidently capture and advocate for every offering, every service, every facet (to ultimately help build more business) without the guidance/training on the bigger business picture. Work life balance has been a challenge as well — although difficult to fully gauge through a pandemic.

Pros

They promote from within, their benefits are competitive and they didn't have any cut backs due to COVID.

Cons

The pay is low and the bonuses and merit raises are pitiful. They care more about their bottom line than their employees.
