Pros
- Full (prorated) PTO provided to full-time employees on the first day of employment, but can only be used per manager/department discretion.
Cons
-Salary/wages offered are about 25-35% less than local averages for the same/similar job. -Maternity leave does not exist - falls under Short Term Disability (and then FMLA) and only provides 6 weeks of leave at full pay. Additional 6 weeks of leave can be taken, but it is unpaid. Option provided to use PTO during those 6 weeks to compensate for lack of pay. In order to be compensated for the full duration of 12 weeks 'maternity' leave, you must be higher level management or be higher on the internally structured pay scale. No paid leave is provided for fathers, only mothers. Use of PTO for addition to the family at the discretion of the department manager. -Training and resources for various jobs are extremely lacking or non-existent. -Benefits package on the lower end compared to local competitors in this market. Medical insurance options lacking, and premiums are on the higher end. HRA provided is extremely low and comes with many stipulations/requirements for little benefit if you even choose to opt-in for it. -Getting connected to the right departments for either personal or work-related issues can be quite frustrating and often lead to dead ends and/or no resolution. -Annual salary increases occur in July for the previous year, and average 2% for 'meets' and 3% for 'exceeds' and often does not even offset the cost of living increases, therefore each year you end up with a negative gain in salary/cost-of-living.
