      Pros

      Training, great co-workers, flex hours.

      Cons

      locations, overload of work, getting stuck in one job and cannot move into another group without quiting, getting stuck working for a bosshole, cat in the last decade has slipped to be a place that does not care about its employees at all, will layoff at the drop of a dime anyone no matter how long you've worked there. better off with CNH or Deere, contract designer make more than direct employees., only get paid once a month, have to consider annual bonus as part of salary otherwise does not pay enough, starts everybody out as entry level no matter your experience. don't get a company laptop because you will be expected to work from home and on vacation.
