Pros

-Benefits are decent -Nothing else worth mentioning

Cons

-It appears company does not have clear directions, it's all over the place -Not company for an old man- after years of service, management is only looking to phase you out bringing in younger (cheaper) kids. It is unfortunate this age discrimination cannot be proven... -If you are not billable you are on furlough immediately
