Pros

It is a job, and it pays money. They are flexible in giving days off with some notice. They provide hot drinks and breaks are paid.

Cons

Paying the same rate they did many years ago. Of course, the young ones don't know that and that is mostly what keeps this place running. Everything is about speed and quantity, while all they talk about at meetings is "quality". Supervisor is either never there, hanging with his buddies, or delegating to his 2nd in command who probably makes little more than I do,

Pros

Good pay. Good benefits. My coworkers who were at the same level as me were supportive.

Cons

Work environment was highly stressful and often unsustainable. Management created a culture where employees were frequently overworked, undervalued, and burned out. Communication from leadership was inconsistent and their expectations changed frequently. Work-life balance was very poor. Employee concerns did not get taken seriously unless they directly impacted company performance. When an HR compliant involving my supervisor was filed for his behavior with input from the majority of the team members, no meaningful action was taken beyond stating it was handled "per BSC policy". Opportunities for promotion and career advancement were limited. Employees who treated others poorly were often still rewarded or praised as long as performance metrics were met. There was a clear culture of favoritism and hierarchy, and employees outside of those circles could work above and beyond expectations without receiving recognition or advancement opportunities. In 2 years, there were 12 employees who were fired in a 10 person department.
