Pros

there are many policies that are aimed at helping and supporting, good support around your life if you have difficulties. if you choose this as a life time commitment this is a great company to work for but you need to be ready to be stuck in the same routine every day for the rest of your working life.

Cons

boring daily routine, even when new routines are applied you are so stuck in the same one you are resistant to change, not a job were you will be at your best, colleagues become like a family so expect to have good and very bad day's with them. you are the tool the company uses to make money so expect to be kept just happy enough with little effort and great return for them
