Pros

Any pros that were once available to employees have been stripped away and no longer exist. The only positive thing that can be said is there are a few hidden gems within the organization.

Cons

Micro management structure, weak internal managers throughout, inconsistent enforcement of rules and expectations. Benefits are extremely expensive. Bonuses have disappeared and the calculation of profit sharing is not transparent.
