incredibly corporate and bureaucratic. top heavy. They don't invest enough in technology for staff. Pay for avg staff and mid managers is not reflective of the job expectations. A lot of very stressed out people.

Pros

Holidays off, okay pay, cross train in other areas that are needed

Cons

Managers, doesn’t keep advancement promises, always mentioning room for growth but when the opportunity presents itself they have an excuse for why right now is not a good time to move. Adds training for other departments that are short staffed but don’t compensate for all the different departments calls you are taking. Trying to take PTO is a pain, there are plenty employees so there should be no issues with taking time off
