Business Outlook
Pros
Pay is competitive. If one works full-time, benefits are competitive and much better than similar jobs/positions. If one has family in a position of power, then working hard is not essential to secure your job, you have the luxury of being an ornament sitting in a chair. Opportunities to apply to other jobs within the county or higher-positions with relevant education, experience, or hook-up.
Cons
Management disrespects you. Too much bureaucracy, ,means nothing ever improves, and if someone in power wants to fire you for personal reasons, they have to construct documented fictitious stories-to cover their job. Leadership and creativity is not rewarded. Overbearing rules, policies, and lengthy-meetings to discuss something simple.
