Pros

I worked with a great group of people at a remote location. It had more of a family type feel to it. Everyone knew each other, hung out after hours and the Christmas parties we're a blast!

Cons

Upper management was so clueless (IT department). It never seemed like we knew much of what was going on, had any type of goal or concept of what should happen next. Not to mention dealing with the union workers...

Pros

The workload is there, especially if you like being busy. In addition, in IT at least, the job feels quite stable.

Cons

Where do I start? Managers are very good at creating an unintentionally toxic environment. They don't understand the needs of their employees, and don't seem to have any desire to begin understanding. On top of that, no one knows what anyone else is doing. We don't know or have visibility into most of our networks, and we don't even know what devices that most of our critical applications are running off of. It's a disorganized mess.
