Business Outlook

Pros

It is a relaxed team environment where people help each other. Career wise, it is a stable company to work for and as long as you do your job at a minimum you don't have to be worried about getting fired. Continous improvement is encouraged but not pushed upon you.

Cons

The biggest con for the company seems to be the base salary and the speed with which promotions and raises come. There's a minimum years experience for promotions and raises which destroys motivation to learn skills quickly.
