      Pros

      Great place to learn and grow. Promotions come frequently. Lots of internal opportunity -- and the training to get ahead is terrific. Benefits plan is great and lots of Wellness stuff, mostly free

      Cons

      A little old fashioned which is sometimes OK. Managers may be promoted so quickly so they are only a few years older than you in some cases. We've had some management turnover lately so there is some confusion about who is in charge. Not a lot of goof off time, but most of the time we go home at 5:00 too.

      Decent job, but not a real career for most.

      Pros

      Job security is stable, benefits are good, and depending on the area you're in, there is a good work/life balance. Advancement opportunities are decent but only to a point.

      Cons

      For most day-to-day operation-related positions, the wages/salaries aren't enough for people to care to put a ton of thought into what they are doing. In fact, the general culture and expectations are not proportional to compensation. Departments create work for other departments; realignment within departments is common but not very effective.
