      Pros

      Very flexible when you have to take care of personal business PLENTY of overtime, especially with a new program that has now been implemented

      Cons

      Senior management (Jim Benson from our corporate headquarters in Columbus, Ohio to be exact) is completely disconnected from what actually happens in the field and imposes new policies that make no sense. Causes the company to hemorrhage money.

      Pros

      Great immediate supervisor and their boss. Made top-down communications tolerable. Great co-workers and great collaboration that lifted the entire team.

      Cons

      (1) RIF based on tenure, not performance. HR is too powerful a department, and everyone fears it. (2) Tenure made you lazy, killed creativity, initiative, and promoted a "yes" culture. (3) During COVID layoffs, CEO pay went from $3.7 million to $15.x million, while employees endured 25% furloughs for 3 months, and management 10% reduction in pay for 6 months - explain how that is reasonable. (4) CEO declared DEI as the way forward for career mobility, and a lot of young, promising talent walked out the door, including DEI-qualified minorities. (5) I was one of those minorities.
