Pros

Benefits package such, paid time off.

Cons

Employee reimbursement took up to 6 months IF the Financial Advisor did not loose your receipts. Senior Area Mgt. changed policy on monthly basis. Whats true for one not for another. Conflicts between employees were attempted to be resolved by being swept under the rug. . BBC as a company is great on paper however does little if anything to implement values into daily practice beginning with Senior Mgt.
