Pros

free healthcare if you're single

Cons

literally everything else. HR is a joke. they tell us to handle things "within our department," and what they don't understand is that why we come to them is because no one will. people push you to go beyond your morals and ethical values.

Pros

Great health benefits, PTO and sick leave, as well as a week off at Christmas

Cons

Bit of a hostile work environment. Very passive aggressive; one minute they're smiling and like you, the next they're yelling at you. Management is also secretive. They don't like to be upfront with their employees. Management is also hypocritical. You'll get rebuked for one thing and then they'll turn around and do the same thing. You get paid for 40 hours salaried, but work a lot more than that with no over time. Expect to work almost every weekend, as well as be on your e-mail every night to respond to messages from management. Management is highly involved in "office gossip" but tends to blame it on employees. If you love being micromanaged, this is the place for you.

Pros

Good benefits (medical insurance is 100% paid). Decent amount of time off.

Cons

Toxic work environment. Patriarchal culture firmly in place. Good luck getting a promotion or a significant raise if you are a woman.
