Pros

Company car (however mine is extremely beat up and was promised a new one 2 years ago but still haven’t even been hinted at when that’s will be happening) Co-workers

Cons

Everything else. New pay structure is a joke. During recent transition, offer letters were given 10 days before and employees were told take it or leave it NO NEGOTIATIONS WILL BE HEARD! No time to find a new job, can’t negotiate new income. New roles were supposed to simplify things but all it does is spread out employees and make more work for each person. Went from working 40 hours a week max ( we had a lot of freedom to build our own schedules as long as we got our work done), to now working 55-65 hours per week. On top of that technically on call 24/7 because we are at the beck and call of our customers every whim.

Pros

The actual coworkers and team members are great. Everyone is super supportive and just trying to help each other out.

Cons

Management: There’s a huge disconnect between upper leadership and the people doing the day-to-day work. Goals and priorities change constantly with very little communication, and it often feels like micromanagement takes the place of actual guidance. Work-Life Balance: The workload is completely unsustainable. You’re expected to handle an overwhelming amount of work, but you aren't given the resources or staffing to actually get it done without burning out. Expecting people to constantly work over their hours has become the norm. Lack of Growth: Career progression is pretty much non-existent. Promises of promotions or career development are thrown around, but they rarely actually happen. There’s no clear pathway to move up, so it’s easy to feel stuck and stagnant.
