Pros

Great Benefits, compensation is decent.

Cons

Favoritism throughout company. Many relatives work for company, they are the ones most likely to move up. Work process unorganized. Uneven workload throughout department, supervisor does not lead, motivate or recognize employees. Unapproachable. Horrible training process. Took a year to learn my job and that was from the help of co-workers not my supervisor. Unable to have any type of conversation with co-workers without being reprimanded.
