      Pros

      I love to do my job and to share the time and values with a great group of team players. We have an enjoyable work environment where you want to go and be there. Our team leader and our manager recognize our efforts; it makes me get better and better with my daily tasks. Also, I get the benefits that I need for my family and me. The business attire works perfectly for me.

      Cons

      I can not find any Cons. I have what I was looking for the company that I wanted to work.

      I have been working at The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints full-time

      Pros

      Benefits are great, kind coworkers for the most part, workable schedules, facilities are fine

      Cons

      Low pay, low upward mobility. The biggest issue is the feeling that if you question management, you're questioning God himself, and that prevents employees from offering suggestions on how to improve.

      Advice to Management

      Actively invite employees to share opinions more than once every two years with the Voice of the Workforce survey. More importantly than that, though, is actually acting upon the suggestions you receive.

      It's great to work for a charitable organization.

      Slow moving bureaucracy can sometimes make it feel like nothing is happening.
