Pros

Great HR practices, Lots of direction when starting out. Good pay package.

Cons

New IT processes put in place are cumbersome, and hoops to jump through often have no relation to the project getting completed. Process for the sake of process, not for the sake of making the business better. Business is catching on however, and will soon notice the extra time and dollars being spent on non-value-add activities, pendulum will begin to swing in other direction soon I hope.

Pros

Holidays off, okay pay, cross train in other areas that are needed

Cons

Managers, doesn’t keep advancement promises, always mentioning room for growth but when the opportunity presents itself they have an excuse for why right now is not a good time to move. Adds training for other departments that are short staffed but don’t compensate for all the different departments calls you are taking. Trying to take PTO is a pain, there are plenty employees so there should be no issues with taking time off
