Pros

Opportunities to move up are available to anyone who applies themselves. The company is willing to relocate you if there is a position available at the location you want.

Cons

Training can take too long to reach everyone. I was a CSR for over two years before I got my first training workshop for this position.

Pros

They shove ESOP down your throat like they were the ones that discovered it but staying around long enough for it to be worth it is the tough part.

Cons

The middle management is afraid of making decisions. You wait so long for something to get done because your manager is trying to guess what the Senior Leadership Team is going to say. They say you can grow with the company but only those that are willing to be herded around like sheep actually are promoted. Then once they are in over their head because they are not trained then the SLT leads them around like circus animals. It is funny to watch from a distance but not as you are living it.
