Pros
The team. Without these hardworking and smart people, nothing would get done. Crime would spiral out of control, and the managers who think they’re in charge would be completely lost. The truth is simple: the whole place runs on the backs of the people actually doing the work. But instead of serving the public, it’s treated like a business first and a service to humanity second.
Cons
One of the worst places I’ve ever worked. Constant micromanagement, terrible managers, and so-called “benefits” that were blown out of proportion like Netflix, dogs in the office, and a pension of just 3–4%, which is the bare legal minimum, honestly I got more from McDonalds. Team lunches once a month (and if they could feed you scraps and bones, they probably would). There was zero progression or training unless you brown-nosed like a corporate shill. We were underpaid, overworked, and expected to celebrate when targets were hit with management taking most of the profit while we were sent home early as a “reward.” You had to beg to get paid for overtime, as they exploited legal loopholes to avoid it and instead offered “time back.” Management preyed on people’s motivation to help others, much like how school teachers are taken advantage of by using genuine passion as a tool for exploitation.
