Favoritism is definitely shown in advancement, raises and promotions

Administrative assistant

Business Outlook

Pros

Good benefits, employer flexible if time off needed

Cons

Seems the way a non-productive employee is dealt with is via promotion out of the department, while those who work hardest are trapped in the same jobs with no advancement, compensation or promotion.

Pros

Rewarding work, with results that I can be proud of. I felt that I moved quickly and had a great deal of responsibility.

Cons

Incredibly difficult hours, and often had to move from across country at a moment's notice, with very little assistance. Management also told me one thing and did another.
