Pros
Employee contribution towards medical premiums have increased over the years and will continue to do so but benefits are still good (for now). Good sick leave, vacation and holiday allowances. Non-program employee jobs are less affected by layoffs. I like my work but not the issues noted in the Cons section.
Cons
Killed pensions. Tiny cubicle workspace with one small 3 drawer cabinet about size of a nightstand. Leadership/management are stuck in the ‘70s - employees expected to do more with inadequate/antiquated systems and tools.Management avoidance of conflict - will not address personnel issues (slacker employees) and does not treat employees equitably (favoritism). Dedicated employees are rewarded by receiving more work with no extra compensation. Promotions are impossible unless employee is one of the chosen ones (favoritism). Low annual salary increases unless again employee is one of the chosen ones. Male and or younger employees assigned higher profile projects. Top leadership is all talk - they say employees are valued with their annoying “thank you for all you do.” Yes thank us for lining your pockets $$$$$$$ while many non-management employees need to take second jobs just to survive.
