Pros

Always something new to learn. Wonderful co-people to work with. Moral used to be very low a few years ago but they employees have, over the years, stepped up with permission to create fun holiday gatherings for their departments outside of the company holiday party. Family gatherings are discouraged in the corporate office. Great learning experience to spring board for greater opportunity.

Cons

Not enough people to share the work load, no time for family. Although they boast to be family oriented, it is just the opposite. Company is better suited for single people or people with older children. When you need to pick up children from school at night and cannot always stay, they don't say anything but you are penalized during the review period. But they don't notice when you are their during the closing processes, or during crucial times. But they do recognize some, but not everyone. Rewards are based on management temperament.

Pros

The company is a leader in the industry and continues to grow which means more opportunity.

Cons

As the company grows, more work is expected. There is a lot of inequity among employees; some work the standard 8 hour day, while some work 10-12 hours a day. Company does not provide meal or car vouchers for people that stay late, which is standard for most companies. Pay is below industry standard which is why you see a lot of turnover.
