Supportive managers but frustrating pay and promotion issues

It operations specialist

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Direct managers are generally supportive and easy to work with. The health insurance coverage is comprehensive and reliable for employees. A stable environment that is "okay" if you are looking for a steady place to work without too much pressure.

Cons

Extremely difficult to get a salary increase or promotion. Management used "declining company revenue" as a reason to stall raises, even after promising counter-offers that never materialized. The gap between performance and financial reward is frustrating.
