Pros

The company genuinely cares about its people. When insurance rates went up, the company paid more to keep the employee burden low.

Cons

It is an international company with many sites and not all sites have the same company culture. My site has a wonderful culture supporting employees and working together. Other sites do not have the same feeling.
