I would like to see us receive a badge for parking in the garage or at the very least additional pay to compensate for parking. I also believe that we deserve better health coverage as well.

I have found everyone to be very professional and the pay is excellent. It is very family oriented around here as well so the work and work schedule tends to be very flexible.

The benefits could be better. In particular I believe that we deserve better health insurance and better parking as well (we currently have to pay for parking in the garage).
