Pros

Good people at the grass roots level. The pay is still very good. There will be growth opportunities at the core sites as other sites shut down.

Cons

Questionable direction from senior leaders; a high risk strategy with changes to sites. Morale is generally low even for people who have survived site closures because they know they could be next.

Pros

Amazing company to work for. Management strives to help you succeed, in constant contact to see how you're doing and how they can help. Benefits are great, hours are great, work is fairly easy, pay is very good for what you do.

Cons

Lots of focus on numbers, but that's to be expected in this industry.
