Pros

Decent health care options and......

Cons

-Completely top down organization that does not look for or care to hear ideas from those below. Even when those below have 10-30 years of experience. Changes seem to be dreamed up over night with no due diligence and are expected to be fully in place in less than 1 month from initial communication. -The resumes of the very top NA Ops leadership do not support their role. Lack of adequate education/experience is clearly showing in the decisions being made and the initiatives being driven. -Laying off higher utilized but lower paid employees while protecting higher paid lower utilized management is a recipe for disaster.

Pros

Flexible work schedule, opportunity to work on interesting projects, the middle management has some very qualified and driven individuals, the staff is very nice and professional

Cons

The senior leadership is absolutely atrocious. There is no clear vision and they set lofty goals (which they will not tell you) but it is clear it is impossible to achieve since they ask us to do more once we do achieve our "goal". They are driven by cash flows and play shell games to cover up their numbers. Senior leadership does not communicate to minions and they are only in it for themself. Very top heavy organization who look out for themselves and their "good old boy" network.

Cons

Bloated beurocracy with many vice presidents, new initiatives / policies are constantly being rolled out,company does everything it can to save $ (eliminates secretaries, pushes employees into small office spaces with no privacy, makes it near impossible to attend conferences to meet PDH requirements, etc etc.), raises are mediocre despite numerous emails stating how well the company is doing, I could go on.....
