Pros

There is opportunity for professional and personal development, but you do have to be willing to make sacrifices (e.g., move to a different facility). At the facility level there is a lot of discretion for management to make decisions as long as they don't conflict with company policies. Management groups at the facility level tend to work collaboratively and creatively to overcome challenges.

Cons

There's a lot of bureaucracy in the corporate structure and it is often difficult to move things from ideas to reality. The organization is more reactive than proactive, which is not uncommon in the industry. In some parts of the organization, corporate management doesn't seem connected to the facility-level management in a supportive way.

No raises, little pay.

Pros

The department I work in is great. The company as a whole is not so good. They could care less about you as an employee and do not value you.

Cons

Worst pay I've ever seen in my field and zero raises. The workload is unfair to employees and they do not value human capital at all.
