Pros

Benefits and PTO are nice

Cons

Micromanagement, undermines employees, will throw employees under the bus in front of clients, lack of communication. Heirarchy implemented to decrease engagement with employees. Over worked and underpaid. You will ask your manager for help and be laughed at if you are overwhelmed and told “that’s how it is”. They will put employees against each other, by touting one over the rest. It’s a toxic work place.

Pros

Hybrid work schedule, multiple offices to choose from, higher pay than most state agencies

Cons

Many Exec, VP & up haven’t earned their positions and don’t have the experience to do even basic job functions on the company systems. Unfair hiring and promotion practices open only to those with connections. There is a class system here where the rules do not apply to everyone equally. Zero job related orientation or training. Managers like to see you fend for yourself and fail and then turn their lack of support into an opportunity to make themselves look like the hero for being the one to identify an issue or swoop in as the fixer. Working for this organization will negatively impact your mental health.
