Pros
- Relatively stable with job security (including managers and employees that should have been performance managed our)
- Strong PTO calendar between holidays and personal vacation
- Union-commanded 3% pay increases yearly for all non-temporary staff
Cons
- Internal mobility at all levels is actively and routinely blocked by the executive team. The reality is (very) high six-figure salary earners actively block high performers in their departments that make significantly less from moving up and making a better wage.
- The best chance you have of any performance-based upward mobility is being your department executive’s favorite.
- There are some extremely loud bad eggs that abuse company-wide communication channels that have not been removed from the org. This contributes to a broader unfriendly and sometimes plainly hostile employee and manager population.
- Advice to job seekers: Avoid this organization if you are a professional (all levels) who aspires to grow with tangible markers (promotion, comp increases reflective of performance, honest and accurate performance reviews).
