Pros

I've been trying to think of something, but there are sincerely no pros that I can think of.

Cons

"Our associates are our most valued asset." "We're better together." Yeah, and the sky is really red, not blue. You can't replace resort staff with offshore consultants, but you can certainly replace 90% of IT. Since my previous company was acquired by MVW, we endured year after year of restructuring and reorganizing threats. 60 people offloaded one time, 40 the next, then 20 more here and 20 more there. I understand the need for efficiency, but inexperienced and extremely poorly trained offshore consultants made it a nightmare to get anything done. Upper management is oblivious. I'm guessing they assumed that if you could replace 1 US based permanent employee with 4-5 offshore consultants for the same price, the BOD could high-five each other at every meeting and the CEO could get fatter bonuses.

Pros

Bebefits like medical were good.

Cons

During my employment as a Quality Assurance employee, I experienced clear unequal treatment compared to colleagues in the same position. Westbound QA employees were not required to clock in and out for lunch, while Eastbound QA employees like myself were required to do so — despite holding identical job classifications. As an hourly employee, this meant I was regularly working unpaid time during mandatory "break" periods. This was not a minor oversight — it was a policy applied unequally between teams. When I raised this concern directly to my manager, instead of acknowledging the legitimate issue, my manager responded by threatening to file an internal HR complaint against me — claiming I had raised my voice in a customer area. I did not raise my voice. Rather than addressing the problem, my manager used this as an opportunity to discourage me from speaking up further. This entire conversation was recorded with my manager's full knowledge and consent. Additionally, a senior manager in my department consistently declined notarization requests from the sales team, redirecting all notary work to me despite being equally qualified. When I was finally given authorization by the Director to take my 30-minute break, I returned to find 7 notarization documents piled on my desk — the senior manager had declined to handle them during my authorized absence.
