Pros

At the time of my employment, the good benefits and generous time off policies were a hold-over from a previous European owner (before the stock went public).

Cons

They post job openings that they never intend to fill as a means of holding money in their budgets they would otherwise lose.

Pros

Great benefits. Affordable health insurance

Cons

Stagnant growth. They only focus on leadership development or licensed trades. Growth is based on friendships. Skills and experience don’t mean much.
