Pros

Benefits Nice Facility Some really good people

Cons

Be prepared to enter the snake pit if you work for the corporate headquarters. Discrimation (in most forms) is overlooked and tolerated as long as the perpetrator is in good with office politics. Management does not care about employees, you are dispensable and replaceable. I worked there for many years and it has only gotten worse year by year. Brown nosing abilities are of paramount importance here. It is also most important that one navigate the corporate culture by constantly proclaiming how lucky they are to work there, if you cannot be a fake person don't work here. It's like a cult, any hint of your loyalty waivering and they will sniff you out and turn on you pushing you out the door for some BS excuse (i.e. "performance"). Used to be a great place to work, corporate greed and office politics have turned it into a nasty place.
