Pros

It was ok while it lasted. My supervisor (now retired) was a good person and a good boss, and I got along with most my co workers. First impressions when hired were mostly positive. Some staff was extremely welcoming and kind, others not so much. (I believe I left in 2016, website wouldn't let me select anything before 2018)

Cons

I can only speak for the IT department. We had very limited resources and systems. User passwords and inventory were on an excel spreadsheet. After a few months I noticed how much gossip and office politics went on everyday. It was toxic and unpleasant. I was let go without warning (no written or verbal) as my contract stated that I needed and this was just before bonus pay that I never received. I am still not really sure what happened. The pay is horrible, and I met a lot of condescending people in upper management. Boardroom meetings were pointless, people talked about ideas that never got accomplished. I feel bad for some of the IT people if they still work there. I feel they can all do better. Being let go from this place was a blessing in disguise for me and many years later I am writing this hoping the place has improved. Overall a superficial place with a lot of immature people running it.

Pros

Its a tough list.... not many, so I'll keep it short:

Cons

I would not recommend this company due to poor management practices, more senior corporate managers. The managers enjoy retaliating and placing blame against employees who speak up. They often play manipulative mind games instead of a fostering and supportive work environment. THEY create the toxic environment and make many of their employees feel undervalued and anxious.

Pros

A company that cares about your work-life balance and offers a great work environment. A company that thinks ahead and is environmentally conscious.

Cons

Need more consistency in compensation across the organization.
