Nice co workers and leads and good PTO

Pros

There used to be a significant amount of pros for this location, those have not been prevalent for quite some time.

Cons

The site lead is grossly unqualified and the building/staff is very quickly diving into the negatives. The turnaround is alarming and most departments are asking for help to meet non-changing (unachieavable) goals but are being met with "mandatory weekends" to meet revenue goals instead. The wages are a very large point of contention in every department within the building. Favoritism is pushing unqualified individuals forward consistently. Unsafe working conditions unless they are aware of an upcoming OSHA visit. Overpromising unrealistic goals to clients. And much, much more.
