Pros

Paid retirement but not very much is paid. Lay ed back atmosphere. Good people to work with. Benefits of employee purchasing. Profit sharing, once again not very much unless your a manager.

Cons

Bad health insurance. Managers do not care about employees. Employees do all of the work while managers do nothing. Sick days are a joke. You can not use a sick day until you are out for 3 days. Then you can use a sick day but you only receive 75% of your daily earnings. If there are no company cars available to visit customers with. Then you do not want to use your own vehicle. You will only receive .15 cents a mile or they will pay for your gas. Which ever one you want to pick but not both.
