Pros

High pay and good opportunity to move up within the company. As long as you take care of yourself and your area then nobody can really say anything to you.

Cons

Bad locations. There are a tremendous amount of micro-managers in the facility. Very old school management style. Very little work life balance. They give you vacation days because your going to really need them when you fall over from being exhausted.

Company has grown into a bureaucracy where politics trumps performance

Pros

Job security, huge balance sheet, private company able to focus on the long-term

Cons

Far too many employees that would likely not cut it at other companies due to underperformance remain employed and in some cases in positions with significant responsibility, often stagnating earnings in business units particularly the energy platform which has lost many key senior traders in the past 2 years which had been large contributors to earnings over the past decade.
