Pros

-ton of health,investment and vision benefits. - lots of software programs and policies in place to keep the product consistent. -

Cons

- promotions recently were not based off of ability or results rather if someone interviewed well. - difficulty to transfer to a location that worked better for your personal life. Direct report never told regional manager or asked permission either, just made a personal decision.
