Pros

Remote work, can work anywhere in the US, team members of Assessment Development and first point of contact in PASS are friendly

Cons

Last minute shortening or cancellation of shifts and often times there's no compensation; continually hiring but never promoting or giving raises; brief sentences of "Thank you for your hard work" are squeezed in at the bottom of letters notifying staff of increased work duties and are followed by detailed mass emails threatening termination; recent significant cut in pay with no satisfactory explanation--not tied to job performance issues or a reduction on test takers-- that had a "suck it or you can quit" attitude. They are definitely not sharing the increased 3% minimum wage for the state of NJ or benefits of the corporate tax cut with all of their employees despite constantly increasing job responsibilities. But, I'm sure that they are prepared for a significant reduction in raters and scoring leadership because of this.

Pros

Support of immediate management and coworkers makes coming to work every day a pleasure.

Cons

Where to start... First, the employee performance evaluation process and methodology has changed from 1) performance vs your job description to 2) OKRs which were completely unattainable and meaningless at every level to 3) rocks and outcomes which again have very little to do with the day to day jobs of most employees. It seems the burden for goals and objectives and performance management has shifted from management to employees as they try to define a methodology that holds only doers responsible for the company's success. All this since Amit Sevak took over. Management manipulated the questions in a recent employee survey to force responses that made it look like there was improvement year over year. Of course, when you add a new President between the employees and the CEO peoples opinion of senior management is improved. Of course when you shift the focus to immediate management from senior management, the responses will be improved. Try issuing the exact same survey as the prior year and see how much "real" improvement there was in the numbers.
