Pros

Great office. Give up to community. Health benefits. Pittsburgh is a great town

Cons

Lots of favoritism. If you come from the outside you will have a hard time. They don’t want to listen to advice from outside experience. They do layoffs every three years and get rid of older folks that make more money and replace them with graduates from college for less pay. Horrible systems and buyers are gods. Buyers are clueless to financial numbers. Otb every two weeks and nothing comes out of it. Everything is plannings fault. They pretend they care but they don’t. Lots of fluff. If your name is Chad or Brad you will be ok. Also you work long hours because everything is micro managed and nothing ever gets decided. Worked late at night and every single Sunday. No support from upper management.
