Pros

Work you do affects lives across the globe and you can take pride in that. Benefits are good, and even in tough months there's no fear of layoffs. Good family-owned business which is hard to come by nowadays. Great culture of celebrating employees like annual employee appreciation days. Intranet is kept up-to-date with transparent updates about state of the business.

Cons

Bad employees, especially leaders, are given a thousand chances to redeem themselves and can be seen as lack of accountability or protection from leadership. Leaders vary based on building you're in, and some need more leadership training.
