Mostly Disappointing

Pros

Flexibility. Every federal holiday off, accrued vacation time, and you can take personal time as needed. If you work a holiday you can generally get another day off (depending on your department and manager) No sick time for obvious reasons. Some managers are fantastic, but they are few and far in between and usually don't stay because they find better opportunities.

Cons

Cutting benefits on a yearly basis. Outsourcing and "change of workflow" is a constant so you are never sure if you'll have a job the following year, sometimes not even the following month. Management doesn't consider the effect of their decisions on "lower" employees.

Pros

Free books (uncorrected proofs) courtesy of The Christian Science Monitor.

Cons

Where to begin? The organization seems to constantly be shifting its priorities and, as a consequence, there is a lot of personnel reorganization. It's definitely not a stable work environment.

Good place, sad or no leadership

Pros

The attitudes of people there is really great. Excellent benefits and competitive salaries. The Church itself promotes good ideas, and leadership tries to promote a very positive atmosphere most of the time.

Cons

The installed leadership are usually fine people to work with, but there's a lot of politics in the management level. And when management finally decides to include the workers in the communication clear reasoning is not always obvious, and communications within departments about major changes are shared when it is about to be implemented. If changes are shared ahead of time there is often an already a pre-designed plan for how things will happen, so imput is not necessarily even needed, nor wanted.
