Pros

Professional colleagues who are usually willing to help.

Easy to move around the US while staying in the same position.

A sense of stability, depending on which group you are in (I am in SWG).

Salary seems to be competitive, no matter of race or sex.

Cons

Management does not provide what is needed to be excellent, only enough to get by.

It is hard to be a top performer without sucking up to management.

It is very hard to move up without being a consecutive top performer.

Advice to Management

Listen to staff and give us what we need to be successful.

If you told an employee they have a good idea, help them implement it or at least get it started.
