Pros

Many lifetime employees, most people willing to help, good benefits package compared to others, stable business

Cons

Management would rather bring in new outside employees rather then promote from within. Even promotions rarely match a decent salary for the industry. The environment is strict, structured, shirt and tie, many tiers of management
