Pros

Reasonable prices for health insurance, generous paid time off accrual, nice coworkers (except management), laid back environment at my location.

Not much room for advancement, the company is cheap so little to raises, management shows favoritism, management is incompetent liars & no one in the company has morals. The company is money hungry & rips its clients off.

Certain positions are under-valued within the Agency and therefore under-paid. ESR has doubled the workload for most positions within the agency and there has been no compensation.
