Business Outlook

Pros

There are some genuinely nice people to work with. Really have to screw up to get canned (if you're a slacker, you're pretty safe). Annual profit sharing.

Cons

"Good 'ol boy" network controls who gets opportunities within the company. Will create weirdly-worded position titles so you can't compare salaries to other companies easily (Bison historically underpays by making non-Managers manage).

Only "ok".

Business Outlook

Pros

Steady, on time paycheck. Immediate co-workers great to work with. Good health benefits.

Cons

Management/ownership focused too much on profit generation, not enough on employee welfare & income. I worked there for ~10 years. One 5% raise in that time for highway drivers, none for hourly local/city drivers. With raise for highway drivers they severely cut back downtime/wait pay. No employer match savings/pension plan.
