Pros

Pay and benefits are good.

Cons

Management doesn't care about employees or doing a job well, just get the job done. People are promoted to supervisor simply because they threaten to leave.

Pros

The company is growing so you have a lot of opportunity for advancement. The team of people here are excellent in their fields and are a pleasure to work with. The benefits and bonus structure are great! Our CEO is excellent at his job and cares about his employees, that seems to be harder and harder to find these days.

Cons

We do have times where a project has to get done and you need to work longer hours but everyone on the team pulls together to get things done. Those times are maybe a couple times a year. If you are in accounting or Division Orders, I've heard the atmosphere in Oklahoma is very different so I'd be cautious taking a job there.
