Pros

There is a strong work autonomy at Lamar. In addition, there are opportunities to engage in projects that have an overall positive impact on corporate profits.

Cons

The income at Lamar is low. The auto and cell phone allowance is not enough to cover their respective monthly expenses. There are too few advancement opportunities within the organization. Cronyism and the Good Old Boy Network are alive and well within the company. The software systems at Lamar are fragmented and are a reactionary byproduct to a particular need. The communication between the departments is poor, and there is a general lack of leadership.

Pros

Good Benefits, some good people to work with most of the time

Cons

Doesn't pay very well. Everyone gets the same raise even if you sit on your butt or work you tail off. No incentive to go above and beyond or take on more responsibility.

Pros

Supposed to be a set schedule, vacation time, sick time, ok pay

Cons

Terrible management, you work will never be good enough, no opportunity for growth, leaders are dictators but are not willing to get their hands dirty, manage from an office chair instead of coming on the field and actually seeing what needs to be done
