Pros

Some great co-workers, benefits (not comp) are good, decent coffee, depending on your department, work-life balance is good

Cons

There is very little advancement, next to no yearly increases, and no tolerance if you want to suggest a change or improvement. Resources, especially staffing, are completely off-balance due to family in-fighting. The structure is completely 'siloed' and makes for many inefficiencies. If you're not a family member or friend, don't bother. Not to mention there is practically no diversity in upper management. At the end of the day, it's about the family getting their large checks.
