Vantaggi
Good money, and insurance benefits started at day one. Office work was done from home and most of the equipment provided was of good quality. Opportunity to work out my own work-life balance. Lots of autonomy. Enjoyed working with members in their own home settings. Made some nice email buddies with co-workers. All the perks of working from home. Great incentive programs and opportunities to improve your health and make money while doing it. Lots of extra workshops and training if you have the time.
Svantaggi
Very big company made communications while working at home difficult. Very often one department didn't know what the other department was doing. Training was detrimental. All the drawback of working from home--answers were hard to get. Being an "old-school" social worker, I often had problems with how management wanted me to treat people, seemed they wanted me to do very little to actually make a difference. I had a very good manager I reported to directly, but other managers I dealt with there were extremely micromanaging. As layoffs continued the atmosphere became less team-oriented.
