Pros

Engaged and actively looking to be a part in the community

Cons

Everyone is gossiping about each other all of the time. When bringing this up to my supervisor, they said that work is not for friendship. Management takes credit for any work that the employees do and are constantly BCC'ing senior management in their emails.

Pros

A strong focus on continuous improvement. Biweekly company meetings with the CEO. A small‑town feel where everyone knows one another. Friendly staff and a culture that allows employees to speak openly without fear of retaliation. My department feels like a family.

Cons

Management often asks for feedback but ultimately makes decisions without incorporating employee input. Frequent meetings about change without meaningful follow‑through. Repeated executive management turnover, with lessons from the past not fully applied. Slow updates to processes and procedures.
