Pros
• The salary and benefits will likely be on the high end of the scale for the area, but understand that it comes at a significant cost. • There's a lot of very talented people here, though that number is dwindling quickly from high turn over. • It's a really nice office, but you'll most likely be living there so it really needs to be. • With a post office and grocery within walking distance, you probably could live there!
Cons
If you had previously left on your own accord - you made the right decision and are without a doubt happier for it. If you were laid off or otherwise restructured/downsized/canned or disavowed - it might not look like it in the immediacy of the moment, but everyone that has left is happier and, more importantly healthier. Consider yourself blessed. If you’re still holding on, still living on your anti-depressants and still believing everything that gets served up in those Friday staff meetings - know that there are still plenty of opportunities out there where you’ll be treated better, and live healthier. They are desperately trying to squelch all the abhorrent commentary with the standard response of ‘it’s just growing pains’ but the reality is the boat is already under water and you simply can’t move the bucket fast enough.
