Pros

Good health benefits and 401k match

Cons

Doesn’t listen to wants or needs of employees Either micromanaged or no clear expectations are given - there is no in between Very cliquey If you don’t spend all your free time doing extra networking for the company you don’t advance (bad work life balance) Toxic “family” atmosphere Philosophy is to hire within but the CEO fired a slew of management and had replacements the next day, all external. Positions weren’t even posted for current employees to apply. You can advance your career to about mid level then all growth stops if you aren’t in the cliques. You can clearly see who management’s favorites are.

Pros

Amazing community and family feel. Lots of promotion form within. Growth opportunities. Tuition help.

Cons

They focus hard to make sure people are never laid off, so HR is careful about how many people they hire, which is great, but also not great when your team needs more people but you can't get anymore people. Some people get away with doing the bare minimum yet still get promotions and praise.

Hours, insurance, holiday time off

Cons

Pay is horrible, price of living goes up but if you are at the top of your scale you don’t get raises
