Pros

Facilities are nice, pay and benefits are good for a organization of its size approximately 500.

Cons

Poor management and leadership, poor dysfunctional structure, process and procedures. Not a place to go for structure and best practices. Very clickish environment especially amongst management. A lot of bureaucracy.

Pros

Pay and benefits are good.

Cons

Leadership is awful, from the GM to the directors and managers. If you are not their favorite you won't go far. Budget is more important than the employees because they get bonus checks when under budget. Too much work required with not enough support. High turnover due to this company's culture. Board of Directors need to reevaluate certain directors and managers and the GM to be honest. They keep losing good people.
