Pros

Great place to work. The people are fun and easy going. Its a great place to interact with contractors.

Cons

The pay is not what it used to be. Yeah, the benefits are good, but the hours were stingy and the pay was better when they had a commission pay. They do not hire from within the company so don't look for promotion.

Pros

Good work/life balance, room to grow, willing to work with you, management actually cares about you (or at least as much as they can being such a large company)

Cons

It's a large company so sometimes you get a little lost but I really don't have a lot of cons. It's corporate do anything that goes along with a corporate job would come along with this.

Pros

Training is great, very dedicated staff. The benefits are really good as well, and the career opportunities are very much out there, IF you are willing to relocate.

Cons

It used to be a great place to work. All the people involved were more like family, but then "Corporate" decides to move everything to Pittsburgh and cut out everyone that has been here for an average of 20 years. Now, they are growing to fast with acquisitions and don't have anyone in place that knows what they are really doing. The compensation is not the best either. They usually tend to be on the lower end of the market and you can only increase a certain percentage of your current base with any promotions, no matter the size of the job.
