Pros

Too many cons to even consider the fact that they have good insurance

Cons

They think they are the only ones that know all the answers. They have a "toolbox" of outdated concepts. They 80/20 everything especially customers which is really bad if you happen to be a customer that doesn't buy enough to be in the top 20 percent. You will be treated poorly, ignored and given outrageous pricing. If you are a young, energetic and talented individual....run!!!.....they will brainwash you and sap the lifeblood from your creativity slowly but surely
