Pros

CBC is a main stay here in Central Pa, and knowing that I am a small part of a great company providing serivce to our members make me proud. Capital treats it's employees fairly and with respect. Provides us with Health Insurance and a minimal cost compared to other businesses

Cons

Way too many Vice Presidents within the company. We went without raises for a year and a half and during that time multiple individuals were named as Vice Presidents.
