Pros

Great place to learn, or retire. The company is very conservative and therefore is stable. Layoffs do happen in some divisions, but are really due to sales and margin reasons.

Cons

Old culture, very old. Heavy topside and management needs to thin out. Very, very conservative and beurocratic and slow to adapt to new processes / technology.

Pros

The benefit package is terrific and the intrinsic value of working in such a great field where we really make a difference in people's lives is rewarding. Columbus is also a great city to work. A great family city with lots to do.

Cons

Management denegrates the value of employees and tries to wring every iota of time and effort irregardless of the imalance in your life. There is minnimal positive feedback but you sure do hear if there's a problem. Everyone is stressed and the morale is really horrible. There are still layoffs of really really good, talented people while others who have perfected the "suck-up" get promoted.
