Uppers
Easy working environment with normal stress only from the work itself. I am
very respected by my associates and customers and feel very appreciated.
|
Downers
Very poor salary with no additional compensations.
|
Lifestyle
8 to 5 position with unpaid work overages only when there are "emergencies" or
duties that must be performed after normal working hours. The dress code is
casual. Mostly jeans and tee shirts due to the physical nature of some of the
work. Travel only occurs when funding can be found to attend some siminar or
show, or possibly some professional training (rare).
The work itself is rewarding and rarely are you board. Each day brings
something new.
|
Compensation
Base salary started at 34K with 1 raise in the last year of 7% due to extra
funding from the state.
|
Advice to Jobseekers
Salaries are stagnant. Look into job titles such as system manager. The job is
basically the same with better compensation.
