Pros

Opportunity for growth in some departments, not all. Health Care benefits are reasonable.

Cons

Very difficult to change the old way of doing business. Very difficult to improve the work flow in some departments. Management is secretive and only wants to share certain parts of the department with only certain employees. Not an ideal workplace.
