Vantaggi
My direct supervisor was open and approachable. Always answered my questions honestly and supported me. Workload was consistent, and expectations were generally clear day-to-day. Co-workers were friendly and supportive (out of a team of 5, including myself).
Svantaggi
Very little room for internal mobility or growth. Learning opportunities were abundant, but minimal opportunities to actively practice new skills in appropriate roles. Extremely detail-sensitive work with a merit-based pay system — room for error was minimal and had a substantial impact on the merit based pay system. Lack of official structured operational documentation prior to, and especially post-merger. My layoff was handled abruptly and without much consideration or warning.
