      Pros

      Some of the leaders at the facility are awesome, understanding, will work with you and train you to be great and self sufficient.

      Cons

      Most people in leadership does not care about anything but the operation of the facility. Select people are able to work overtime, there is really no reason to want to stay at this facility if you have real responsibilities because of the pay. I have not received a full check with 80 hours for a year now and you can only get paid time and a half for overtime, if you have a full 80 hours.

      Pros

      CC Uses cutting-edge Technologies, which is good experience for resume building; many of the Teams are collaborative; interesting work and you can believe in company goals.

      Cons

      Director and Manager level mgmt at corporate here do not provide guidance on projects. There is a lot of turnover on data projects because new employees are thrown into the deep end and then just blamed if results are not as expected. CC really needs more hands-on project oversight. There are also behavioral and anger issues with a couple long-time ppl as well, and this is both exhausting and (sometimes) outright humiliating. They need to treat new people better.
