Pros

There is alot going on, you can work with a variety of different platforms, tools, systems, and software.

Cons

The benefits are ok, they keep raising the rates and lowering the coverage. Being self insured they are looking at the bottom line not what they can do for the employee. They treat employees like a disposable resource and can be replaced easily and not like an asset. They hire you in and you are locked into whatever you are hired into unless you come in with an offer or threaten to leave. They hire new people in at higher positions instead of promoting from within the company. If you do your job and do it will and no one notices you will not get promoted. The evaluation systems really sucks as well. If you do everything on your evaluation and do it above grade, they will mark it down so they do not have to give high evaluations and raises.

- Good time off and flexible - Some leaders are great - Regular Benefits

Cons
