Pros

Steady work. Management is pretty decent about working with employees with limited scheduling availability. Pay is all right. Benefits even if you only work 20 hours a week.

Cons

Constantly overworked and understaffed. A lot of the employees are dead weight. Promotions appear to be given based mainly on how much of a sycophant you are, not on any particular merit system.

Pros

Job can be fun and interesting Always something new to learn Lots of personal fulfillment as a manager when things go right

Cons

Unsupportive upper management Toxic work culture, unpaid overtime is rewarded and even expected or forced, even to the tune of multiple weeks in a row with no days off when you are salaried. They claim to support work life balance but even the smallest effort to set boundaries is heavily punished. Not paid as much as we should be for everything we have to do and deal with
