Pros

Enjoy the job and flexibile hours. The convenience and value of having a fitness center in the building is priceless. Free parking.

Cons

The Bloomfield site has to be THE worse location Met could choose in CT. It's miles from a highway and miles of back road driving to the campus. It's a nightmare of red lights and wasted time spent in traffic jams no matter which direction you travel from. The campus is stark, isolated and cold. We're not allowed to use the beautiful grounds surrounding us for any functions outdoors. The office interior has a negative vibe and is void of any color. It's depressing, period. Things have gone down hill since moving here. Morale is at it's very lowest.

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
