Some good and other less so
Caring organisation trying to do the right thing but some rotten apples mess up the culture. Good benefits although the pay isn’t very competitive. Overall a good place to work if you have the right manager.

Some people are happy with riding on the coattails of others, but all in all the work environment is rewarding and gives an array of different tasks each week.
