      Pros

      With so many managers it's easy to get help for customers

      Cons

      There are more managers than office staff so it's very hard for staff to have a day off. Managers will often make you feel guilty and try to get you to cancel your vacation because there is no staff coverage. Taking a vacation means you have all that work to catch-up on waiting when you get back.

      Pros

      Good pay Good pension plan and benefits

      Cons

      Senior management is extremely unprofessional. Managers will personally pin employees against each other for their amusement. Extreme favouritism in the work place Horrible hours A completely disrespectful working environment, full of harrassment that gets swept under the rug. Nothing gets kept confidential amongst management
