Pros

The job can be flexible, certain departments can be very busy which means OT is available but not mandatory, job security and benefits. Great employees for the most part.

Cons

Do not expect an annual raise or bonus each year. (Raise is not base on performance) If moving to a different department/cross work expect to be slaved and when promoted expect more work and same pay. Management does not care. If need to they’ll find someone.

Pros

Enough overtime if that's what your into or desperately want to deplete your soul.

Cons

No room for growth, barely acknowledge your effort, they run it like a communist culture/environment. You have to threaten to leave for them to squeeze a dollar from where the sun don't shine sad to say.
