Pros

Excellent company. Started when I was in college part time, the manager was great working with my school schedule. Transferred fairly easy when I moved back home after school and finally got a full time position which then turned into another opportunity within the company. Excellent benefits, competitive pay, profit sharing, great PTO.

Cons

Management is very political. Rather than hiring someone who's been training for a position, I noticed more times than not they hired outside the company rather than promote.
