Pros

Good stable company that has been around for 80+ years. Great people that know what they are doing. It's not uncommon to meet someone that has been with the company for 20, 30, or even 40+ years.

Cons

Work/life balance. They like to preach this, but in reality it doesn't exist. What use is it to have a gym on the premises if I have no time to use it? Working 50-60 hours a week is not uncommon. Average pay with above average work is not a good combo. Also, IT systems are a disaster. You have to jump through hoops to get the most basic of data.

Pros

If you thrive on having responsibility, you'll love working here!

Cons

All those responsibilities... you won't have the authority to make many decisions, as we were able to do. They have a leash on you now and they think that's a good thing. They will tell you (after you are hired) that to do the job properly it will take you 120-130 hours PER WEEK!! They will only focus on what you don't get done, not on what you do well. Get as much money as you can up front... raises are as frequent as snow at their headquarters (Miami). They have little respect for their front line managers.... be prepared to be un-appreciated.
