Business Outlook
Pros
Good benefits and good working conditions. They are very understanding about personal/medical situations that might affect attendance. The company is very conservative, but they don't make a lot of mistakes, either. Acquisitions, changes in business are well thought out.
Cons
It is had to advance one's career at Vulcan, There is a great deal of nepotism in management, and lots of poor mid-level managers. If you don't get a promotion early in your career you probably won't get one at all. One particular department was so bad they couldn't fill jobs internally. Yet the manager was allowed to sustain a hostile work environment despite repeated complaints from subordinates.
