Pros

It allowed me to advance my people skills, train, operate and maintain the company assets.

Cons

Being salary and working 50 hours a week and only getting paid for 40. Not acknowledging their staff of the good job they have done and to encourage them to keep up the good work. Not giving raises for years at a time.

Pros

Good and fair pay for the work you do. Benefits OK, but expensive

Cons

Micro managers. They ad to know what you were working on all the time and always came by to ask. Don't like to hire within and promote. They would rather fill the position with new employees
