Pros

a lot of overtime so no need to get another job

Cons

Seriously, all they look for is passion to work there. So, your ex-cons and meth heads actually move up here. They show the most desire to work(because they can't anywhere else) so there are people managing others who are drug addicts. At a corporation, is what blew my mind.

Pros

Good amenities: gym, child care, cafeteria. Great potential to control your own income (although most positions/departments are salaried and this varies). Great people to work with on your team. Lots of activities and incentives (again varies by department). An excellent benefits program.

Cons

Not very much training and development. Unclear path on how to move up in the company in some areas.

Pros

Perks such as big fancy Christmas parties, nice building to work in, Cafe, Gym, Childcare

Cons

Way too many managers with their own agenda and very little management training. Way too little supervision of managers by their superiors. Way too much of a boys club, even still, in 2014 - COME ON. I guess women are just supposed to marry well so we don't need to be paid well? Across the board, pay is below standard pay bands for this city. Total lack of accountability to their employees. As for "Values" not everyone has fun, nor do well do what is right. The company only does what's right when it creates revenue.
