Pros

Competitive benefits, pension for those who started before 2015. Room to advance, if do not mind moving. If you are looking for a long term position this would be a good company.

Cons

It is not what you know, but who you know. Double standards for those who are protected by friends or family members. If you on the outside, then tread lightly for you could be looking for a new job.
