Pros

nice building, good medical, good location

Cons

Vey stressful, low compensation, lots of manual work, no training, poor work experience, understaffed. Some other deparments are good but IT department is a hopeless place. No wonder it has huge attrition rate and that adds even more burden on already stressed people. Some other departments are better.

Pros

Work is interesting, people are great except for senior leadership. Work can be monotonous but there is opportunity for some cross training which helps; middle management is great for the most part

Cons

Pay is below average for industry and there is a huge range in pay for people doing the exact same work; promotions are difficult to receive - we shouldn't have to interview for promotions. Employees should have the opportunity to be promoted just based off merit and experience; "hybrid" work model forced upon employees when jobs can be done remotely; lack of care for employees from senior leadership
