Avantages
Job satisfaction consists of what you bring to your role, the effort and commitment you put into your work and your attitude towards change and challenges. I thoroughly enjoy getting up and going to work each day. My colleagues are the best in the business! They epitomize commitment to their work and care for our customer as well as the impact their work ultimately has on our nation. I take great pride in this purpose too. They are also very approachable, friendly, and funny. There's nothing better than laughter to get through the day. I have realized growth in my career here and been promoted once. Going through an acquisition has been difficult for some but this has been a fantastic opportunity for personal growth. Working with our parent company affords all of us exposure to a breadth of resources and continually give us new challenges to make work interesting. ASM is a very flexible company embracing telework opportunities. Their headquarters is an easy commute for me and in DC that is a huge plus! It is a beautiful building with windows everywhere that showcase an incredible view of Northern Virginia. I take advantage of all training opportunities. I also use the gym reimbursement and enjoy the gourmet coffee, fresh fruit and healthy snacks.
Inconvénients
Not everyone is navigating the acquisition well. Now that we are a publicly owned company and no longer a small employee owned business there is new accountability for our efforts. Those that coasted along are not happy. There negatively can be contagious if you aren't careful. The days of working for one company for your entire career are gone. Many should be resolved of that and widen appiture of there search for career fuflilment or retire. Our new line of business has added a different level of worker to our mix. They too are constant complainers and their reviews on this platform should be taken with a grain of salt. They have had no accountability in their jobs before and do not have the maturity to address questions and concerns with their leadership. Many worked for prior companies that didn't follow federal guidelines and are having to make some adjustments. All of them are being paid a decent wage and receive benefits. Sorry the cost of healthcare foes up for all of use. They should remember that we value our employees but answer to the customer. If they make staffing changes sometimes it is at the request of the customer. Not everyone can meet high standards.
