Pros

There are no Pros other than the fact they seem very personable at the beginning.

Cons

They mislead people at the time of hiring. They sell you this wonderful career opportunity then screw you by laying people off. They have no plan. Do not communicate with staff. Bishop is a huge fony.

Pros

Paid training, flexible schedules, possible to work remotely, 401(k) match.

Cons

Lack of opportunities for upward career growth, managers don't even bother to pretend that they respect Bishop and will often disparage emails and announcements sent from corporate in front of other coworkers, lack of communication between departments leads to a lot of redundant or unnecessary work completed, lack of communication between employees which causes issues during inter-departmental projects; management team doesn't know how to manage because they either micromanage or are MIA and often fail to reply to time-sensitive emails; employees expected to complete extra work within the confines of a 40 hour work week but discourages employees to record overtime work because they don't want to pay time and a half; low office morale because corporate clashes constantly with satellite office management team; mediocre pay in comparison to industry standards; lack of consistent work depending on season; misleading hiring techniques that attract you with empty promises when you're looking for a job but will disappoint you once you're hired; lack of respect shown towards newer employees.
