Pros

It was a steady pay check.

Cons

Management constantly had bad news and said we were constantly at threat of losing our contract so there was always this moderate-to-high level of anxiety at our customer site. Corporate was really clueless about how to keep our customer happy, seemed almost angry that my customer always seemed exceedingly happy with the level of service I provided, and never wanted to pay me what I was worth. I discovered I was making 50k less than male co-workers with the same (or less) education and qualifications as I was and when it came time for raises, they always made us feel like we were fortunate to get tiny, incremental raises when we knew they were taking the lion's share for management and the CEO. Finally, management refused to acknowledge there was a problem between two employees and let one bully another. They ignored the problem until the situation spiraled out of control. In essence, creating a hostile and very toxic work environment.

Pros

My pros are my manager and team coworkers. Outside of that not really a fan. I do well at what I do.

Cons

Honestly, ever since new management has come for the upper VPs and directors, a lot has shifted for the negative. Feels very micromanaging when we were told we were doing fine at home and there was no reason to have us come back in the office. Now suddenly we’re being forced back to the office. Other departments and I don’t really get along because there’s a bunch of petty people just trying to get others in trouble and all I’m doing is trying to do my job. Where I am at, everyone just talks all day and then complains about how much work they have.
