Pros

Good hours and decent pay. Company is energetic and people seem to enjoy working here.

Cons

No upward mobility due to flat management structure. Systems are awful and the infrastructure cannot support demands for information.

GREAT EMPLOYER

Pros

Great company culture. Amazing benefits! Most people who work here are loyal for a very long time and love it!

Cons

The company is organized as a VERY flat hierarchy. There are hardly any secretaries or clerks. Even in professional positions, you are responsible for all aspects of your job...copying, printing, phones, etc... This also means that most "promotions" leave you in the same position with a pay raise, etc. but your role doesn't have that much room to change significantly.
