Very disappointing experience, disheartening, too much office politics. Is this high school again?

Pros

Flexible hours (so long as you don't let Supervisor/Manager make you feel guilty for leaving after nine or ten plus hours. Great benefits of health insurance.

Cons

Only Management gets bonuses - nothing is passed down to employees. Mid-management lacks people skills. If you aren't one of the "chosen" favorites by Supervisor/Manager, your work is unappreciated and you WILL be thrown under the bus to other departments and Business Unit Managers. Too much favoritism which means opportunities are not available to everyone - just the "chosen". Not everyone held accountable for responsibilities, policies, procedures. This practice is very obvious but very tolerated. If you rock the boat it makes it worse for you.

Pros

Excellent pay and benefits. NB campus is wonderful. They take very good care of the "hi-pots".

Cons

They do not mentor new people. If you come from outside the industry, beware before taking a position here. Expect to learn everything on your own.
