Pros

It is good to have big company experience on your resume for future opportunities. Other companies will lure away the experienced people with much better pay and benefits.

Cons

It is difficult to get vacations because they will call you in to work when there is a storm. CEO does not believe in remote work, so you must be in the office. Pay is not competitive and does not catch up with inflation, so getting paid less and less over time. No opportunities for advancement. No career development or path.

Pros

It is a good place to start your career and build up your resume. Benefits start on the first day on the job. A few people are very knowledgeable and willing to teach you, but you need to find them and ask questions.

Cons

Pay is below average and annual raise is two percent. With 2021 inflation at seven percent, everyone has been quickly demoted with a big pay cut. As a result, a lot of people are leaving because many places are hiring and paying a lot more.
