        Pros

        Only Pay and benefits as other aspects have gotten worse.

        Cons

        Lack of new hire or promotions for people in IT as they continue to use contractors. Also,promises of IT for IT projects a joke as new tool rolled out to it would not have been rolled out to business departments with the defects. No clear vision from IT Management.

                  Pros

                  Good retirement package and okay benefits. People at the corporate office were warm, welcoming, and hard working. Safety first culture for those in the field.

                  Cons

                  Major sexism and sexual harassment going on in the field offices and little to no diversity. Management (all older white men) turns a blind eye to those that report it and are retaliated against. No opportunities for advancement or additional training. The staff at the field offices have little to no direction or oversight. The ideals at the corporate level are just not effectively conveyed to the field offices. Training is non-existent and field offices simply do not have any direction other than try not to spend any money and make sure there are no workplace injuries. Regions have not had budgets to work from for the past few years since company was acquiredby IFM, so everyone is flying blind in terms of the finances which is a recipe for disaster.

                    Business Outlook

                    Pros

                    Depending on team, tons of flexibility and work/life balance. 401k match is outstanding. No real office drama and people you work with are very hardworking and care about what they do each day. We are in a brand new building that is beautiful and close to so much. Laid back atmosphere, depending on team.

                    Cons

                    No room for growth, unless you're an engineer, manager, or in IT and want to travel a lot. Seems like the same people get promoted or change jobs over and over and over again. Pay is OK and from what I hear ( I don't use the medical benefits) they are not great anymore. Since we merged or got bought out by IFM, its a different company. Not the same Buckeye it once was and not in a good way. Some teams are extremely overworked and short staffed.

                        Upper management is not very good, raises are hard to come by.

                      Got booted from my former position about 4 years ago, which I LOVED. I have the impression I was "kept" in sympathy. Now that I have my feet beneath me, I feel like I'm running in place. Over the past 2 years, I've probably applied for about 100 positions in other departments. True, a few were unlikely moonshots, but for the most part I didn't misrepresent myself. Am I the world's worst interviewer? Otherwise.. shouldn't I have been accepted elsewhere, by choice?

                      Administrative Assistant

                      I haven't worked since Jan. 2020 when my job as administrative assistant for the Hospitalist group was eliminated. I can't begin to count the number of applications submitted, interviews I've had, jobs that I was told were mine then they weren't, etc. Several jobs have fallen through or not panned out. I am not a job hopper and want to stay where I go. I have a zoom interview tomorrow for a front desk receptionist position at an oral surgeon's office. Any interview tips are appreciated.

                      Hey all, I’m looking for advice on program manager hypothetical interviews such as: “what would you do if X happened?” Is there a particular thing or core value that Bloomberg looks for? Thanks!
