Central Dispatch - USA, not a nice place

Business Outlook

Pros

Pay is okay, co-workers are nice. This office might be a way to get your foot in the door; other than that, look elsewhere.

Cons

Supervisor has no business being in a supervisory position (how typical is this). The current dispatch software is substandard and subject to crashing. Supervisor/company expect you to handle things you have no control over.
