Corporate culture of not caring about what you know, but who you know. Would prefer to hire 2 or 3 employees who know nothing versus one who does. Rather hostile environment for any employee that had been there for any length of time. Office was like a revolving door. Both pay or just a cost of living raise were non-existent, because there "was no money in the budget." Hourly pay for most employees that would be salaried employees anywhere else, and a payroll system designed for factory workers punching a time clock adds to the frustration.
