Uppers
Great boss, somewhat interesting subjects, and quite a bit of freedom.
|
Downers
Pay sucks, benefits are only ok, and promotion opportunities are limited.
Bonuses have been small the two years I've been here.
|
Lifestyle
Hours are not bad. I can work overtime and get paid. Vacation time is good,
but sick time and vacation are lumped together.
|
Compensation
Base pay is low, but opportunity for overtime is helpful.
Bonuses have been small the last few years but the process to
recieve them is very fair. No stock options yet, but may be in
the near future. Bennefits are pretty good, dental plan is sub
par.

Advice to Jobseekers
Opportunities are limited, and quality of jobs with in that pool
are pretty hit or moss. If you want to get into the
business/politics field be ready to have all your ideas of
idealism crushed by the political process, politicians and
Washington in general.
