Pros

Great benefits and potential for good work life balance under more realistic demands and different/better management

Cons

Unrealistic demands and poor upper management. Lack of understanding of job roles, workload and responsibilities. Overworked. Low moral - some employees carry multiple heavy loads while some at the same pay level and agency blow by with minimal work and responsibilities. No upward mobility. Ambassador is openly disrespectful and unprofessional. Demands are, resources are low - often feeling as though we are set up to fail.

Treatment of staff is a concern. Posted officers are treated well, but locally employed personnel are treated as second-class.
