Pay, benefits, friendly people, good co-workers

Cons

- Favoritism, excessive workloads, and micro-management. - Limited promotional opportunities. - Difficult/impossible to obtain other positions within the organization. - Qualified internal candidates are often overlooked by HR in favor of hiring externally. - HR doesn't value good, dedicated workers. - Management protects its own--while the average worker is displaced or experience job loss.
