Pros

Free food and tickets to sporting events.

Cons

Outsiders beware. This company resists change, even if it makes things better. Your suggestions will fall on deaf ears. For example in one department 'our dba's don't do queries' suggests a lack of skills. Don't try to rock the boat, as you will be quickly thrown out. If applying for a job in IT, it will require 20% hard skills and 80% soft skills to succeed. This is a Excel spreadsheet company. Most of the staff and managers were promoted from within, many from the call center. Managers are weak in soft skills.
