Pros

Pay is good and I liked the schedule. As far as operations it's a relatively stable position. People I worked with were good people but a lot of them were gone after the layoffs. Benefits are ok. The technology is pretty advanced.

Cons

There were layoffs before I got there and there were layoffs while I was there. Apparently it was because upper management was not managing the money well. CEO ended up getting fired.
