Pros

•Somewhat decent pay •Lots of institute events •Great benefits

Cons

•Manager and boss have poor communication skills with each other •Lots of harassment and little done about it •No written job descriptions so management changes what job duties are regularly. This also stops the ability to be promoted •Team(s) are very cliquey •Upper management treats lower teams like they’re expendable and will even say it to our faces •Not much upward movement opportunities •Lots of conflict both in and between teams
