Pros

Fair compensation, good benefits, good technology. One of the few companies that still gives a bonus and offers a pension.

Cons

does not keep its employees informed of changes being made, tends to inform employees after the fact. Reviews are a hassle, if you even get one on a regular basis. You do have to complete paperwork for your own review that is very time consuming and useless.

Pros

Good support for new people managers were very helpful and always available

Cons

Micromanage every second of your time; have to put in a request to go to the bathroom and wait for someone to grant it Expect you to put exceptions to your time after your shift ends on your own time Half hour lunch by the time I brought my lunch or heated my leftovers and went to the bathroom. I barely had time to wolf it down. Unrealistic call times Systems are horrible and crashing all the time expect you to be in at least 15 minutes before your shift unpaid to set up all the programs on your computer
