A Joke!

Pros

If you want to stay at one company for 20 years, be a "yes" man/woman and work with a bunch of people that have no clue about the real world, then this is the place for you. Just check your boxes every day and you can retire from the company. On the plus side, there are a lot of very nice people there, but those people do not pay your salary.

Cons

Promotions are hard to come by unless you know the right old guy in charge of a division or in the "special club". If you think you can join this company with fresh ideas, think twice about it, there is only one way to do things and it's their way! As for compensation, it is low, so do not expect to make any real money.

Pros

Great environment and co-workers. No micro managing.

Cons

Little to no opportunity to move up in the company. Pay increases are average at about 3% each year.

Pros

People were nice and I had a great manager while I was there. The benefits and compensation were good. Very large company.

Cons

Company culture is slow moving when it comes to change. Not a good place to work if you are entrepreneurial. Definitely a good ol' boys club that is carrying a lot of dead weight even after many lay offs.
