Pros

Above average salary and benefits.

Cons

Mgmt prefers quantity over quality, i.e. if you aren't working outside of business hours, you're not going far. Expectations aren't clearly laid out, but you're chastised if you aren't coming in early or staying late, regardless of measurable work achievements. Even salaried employees are expected to clock in/out every day. The company puts no effort towards corporate moral either and rarely takes action on employee feedback/complaints. Promotions are exclusively internal, which results in the most senior specialists moving into management, often without any real experience or mgmt training.
