Pros

Decent pay and benefits, annual cola

Cons

Deeply toxic work environment, hierarchical, lots of micromanagement, disrespectful to many staff not perceived as important, zero opportunities for promotion unless you’re part of the “popular” or “in-group.” Any sort of speaking up is silenced or ignored.
