Pros

I honestly can't remember the last time I was as happy at work as I am with this company. I feel that people are truly valued in this organization, and that if you want to stand out, there are plenty of opportunities to do so. Hard work is valued and recognized, and my boss always makes me feel appreciated. I am permitted a great deal of flexibility to schedule my work so that I can attend to personal appointments and errands as necessary. My manager works WITH me to establish my objectives, and I'm given a ton a freedom to do my job the way I see fit. As long as I produce the expected results, I am never given a moment of grief!

Cons

My job is in the local head office. Others who work in unit locations probably would have a different view of things - but I can only speak to my own experience. I'm sure that it is a much tougher grind out in the field.

Pros

Work is usually exceedingly casual. Usually. Management is friendly. Usually. Workers who are hired are talented. Half of the time. At least I'm recognized for being devoted.

Cons

The only words I have to describe my time with my branch is...where the hell did that come from. Out manager is exceedingly chaotic and has trouble communicating. In the past he's hired a number of incompetent persons for any number of positions, and it drives me mad. But hey, it's very much a dead-end job. In addititon, the manager has a tendency of telling the staff one thing, then changing his mind and not telling anyone and giving hazy directions on the assumption that you know what the heck he's talking about.
