Pros

Paid training provided. Many opportunities for advancement are available once you start working with the company. After only a few months of employment, you will be eligible to enter other branches of the company if you pass the examinations.

Cons

As a part-time employee, it is very difficult to qualify for health benefits because you must accrue a set amount of hours over a year, but the minimum hours required to qualify is set too high.

Pros

There were so many opportunities when I first started ten years ago. Benefits were good but standard. HAD a great reputation of keep good employees.

Cons

All that changed last year when they laid off 2% of their workforce with no prior notice. Morale has gone down. Workload has increased. Upper management is known for conducting interviews while already knowing who they're already going to hire. The do the interviews so they can appear to be fair.
