Pros

The pay wasn't bad for the area, that being the middle of nowhere corn country.

Cons

They required mandatory overtime during busy times, and then asked for voluntary temporary layoffs. The office was filled with employees who had been there 20-30 years, so the drama and personal arguments were bonkers. Everyone else had been there 2-3 years max, before finding greener pastures. The "lifers" also didn't want to retire because they had 6-8 weeks of vacation, so we were constantly having to do their work for them, cover for them, or get them back up to speed on what they missed on vacation. Don't get me started on the on-call pay insanity. For your mandatory on-call weekends you could get called in any time friday 8pm to monday 8am. I was called in at 2am sat, 7pm sat, 5am sun, and 7am mon. Due to the way they calculate on-call pay I was only paid the equivalent of 2 hours more than if they hadn't called me all weekend. I spent 3.5 hours just commuting back and forth that weekend, then I had to work a full week.
