Pros
Tuition reimbursement, fairly flexible working environment
Cons
HR stunts employee growth. Departments wish to promote within and HR makes it nearly impossible, not realizing how much time, money, and resources are wasted in the hiring process and could be avoided if promoting within was a feasible option. Grossly underpaid. Little to no work-from-home ability although job can easily be done from home. Under-performing team members stagnate processes. Very little career...

Consider the benefit to the organization that long-term growth options for current employees can have.
