Excellent pay, time off, and benefits.
Cons
There can be some slow, inefficient bureaucratic processes. Overall, some employees are just dialing in and can be very resistant to change and actually doing their jobs. However, you can adapt and learn what you need to do to be successful in your position.

Pros
The environment is amazing! The pay is good and the coworkers are super friendly.
Cons
The cafeteria and gym closed due to COVID. Also, I am not too happy that they take a big chunk of my check for retirement by force and back billed me for deductions on previous paychecks they forgot to deduct. When I got hired I was too busy training that I missed the 30 day period from hire date to sign up for health benefits. I pleaded for an exception but I was denied. Now I don’t have any health insurance until next open enrollment which is in 4 months.
