Pros

Competitive salary. Generous PTO and vacation accrual. Good benefits package. Opportunities for growth and development.

Cons

Ongoing management turnover and staffing shortages. Difficulty hiring enough managers to properly support the business. The culture the company promotes no longer feels as strong as it once did, resulting in a less positive work environment.
