Full of Dead Wood

Recommend

Pros

Good pay for what you do, which is little. Many are allowed to work from home. Very flexible hours for most. Some departments have excellent management teams

Cons

Leadership is full of dead wood. No one wants to "own" anything but they are more than willing to take credit. Lots of VERY cautious people work in Director rolls. Watch out for those who take the credit for all your work. There is lots of cheer leading from the top with new initiatives each year. And then there is no follow through which can be very discouraging.
