Pros

The people are nice enough usually, the hours are standard, and performance expectations are low (demonstrated best by their own HR team)

Cons

The HR team includes some of the most incompetent people I have ever had the misfortune of meeting. The HR team is ridiculous, they don’t know their own policies and make it your problem. They have the most inefficient processes that don’t make sense and the staff aren’t even familiar with. Best of all - They pay below market and pretend it’s competitive by dropping tons of responsibilities on you outside your job description.
