Pros

Good benefits; time off, healthcare, 401K etc

Cons

Disorganized, no real leadership or HR with rules to follow or company policy. There is a company policy/ handbook but following that is loose. No real structure. When an employee reaches top tier they are let go with out justification. If you are a woman forget it. I’ve seen many of them tossed aside, not heard or given opportunity. They are the first to be let go.
