Pros

Pay and benefits are great.

Cons

High turnover, lack of training for new hires and not a team environment. Not the same as it used to be years ago when folks worked here for decades. Lower level managers don't welcome new hires and are hands off with little to no training. There is constant criticism and little chance for success in your position if mgmt doesn't like you. I've seen people come and go since I've started who have been here less than a year. Disappointed with the way high turnover is ignored. Lack of staff and replacement of those who leave means more work for everyone else. Emergency storm roles change constantly and there was very little info on those roles during the hiring process. Company reputation is not what it used to be.
