Not for everyone, be careful

Pros

The mission is admirable and most of the people who work here are very nice (sometimes to a fault). Genuine concern for your personal safety.

Cons

The culture is very weird and stifling, as other reviews have pointed out. If you have a common sense approach to risk and safety (or a sense of humor about either), the finger wagging tone and culture can be grating. On the job function side, there is a lot of talking about doing work, but not many people actually doing it, mostly a by product of too many generals and not enough soldiers.

THIS PLACE SHOULD BE SHUT DOWN!!!

Pros

This started out as a good company. I worked here for over 30 years. Most of these years were good and I was proud to work with this company until the latest management arrived.

Cons

I worked as an Accountant and know the inside info. The last group of management that took over this place was shockingly unethical and greedy. Even though they were making record profits they decided they wanted to increase bonuses for themselves. They began by falsifying performance reviews and firing almost the entire staff. Targeting senior staff some with over 30 years at the Council. They did this by lying and destroying lives. They also fired all the African American employee's except for a few. Managers are the worst I have ever and criminal charges should be considered.
