Pros

the benefits are really good including profit sharing, health and dental insurance, and paid vacation. the atmosphere overall is good also because employees will get together to help each other in times of need with fundraisers, bake sales, etc. other benefits are a credit union, gym, cafeteria, and tuition reimbursement.

Cons

the downsides of working here are the goals required to show competency are constantly changing. you must exceed the goal requirements to be promoted even with these changes. also some managers will promote with the same stats that another manager will not promote you for.

Pros

It's a good job to get your foot in the door, the profit sharing plan is generous, management makes good decisions as far as investing wisely and turning a profit when many other companies aren't.

Cons

Promotions appear to be based much more on tenure than merit. I've been told for several years how high I'm ranked in the department, but keep getting put off for a promotion. The compensation doesn't keep up throughout the years, management can be shady about communicating changes and their motives.

Pros

Many opportunities to grow with the company since there are tons of different positions one can transfer to after being with the company for 6 months.

Cons

The downsides are that the first 6 months is a probation period without any days off but after that you may ask for days off.
