Pros

Hourly progression relatively fast. With luck there are at least 4 good units to work in. Competent and professional coworkers.

Cons

Weak labor union has created hostile environment and separation between management and employees. Management encouraged through bonuses to cut operator overtime, reduce workforce, and overwork the existing employees. No bonuses for operators. Work load in some units entirely too high.

Pros

Great benefits, hybrid & remote roles, great colleagues to work with. Great vacation /time off. Helpful colleagues

Cons

Reorganizations (roughly 3 years), IT roles dwindling in North America(moving to India), teams can get very silo-ed, “not my role” = not helping you (when you are looking for answers/assistance), currently seeing a lot of movement out of New Jersey (roles moving to other parts of the country), some organizational charts can be confusing, huge organization(can be difficult at times pinpointing the exact team you may need to work with)
