Pros

Staff Breakfast on Fridays, Family Meal available to all employees every day. Some great co-workers

Cons

Unprofessional Management. Will not take responsibility for unorganized departments and lack of leadership. some joke that advancement is impossible because senior-management members do not want to look incompetent (so will not promote employees who have a better skill-set). Turn-over count is embarrassingly high. HR members are often unhelpful (will not prioritize internal application, even though it is clearly advertised as something they do). lack of leadership is obvious and crippling. Quarterly reviews are skipped in most departments, with no consideration to hourly employees.
