Pros

There is some mobility and opportunity with an aging workforce. The company itself is doing really well

Cons

Management does not give you the tool to succeed and will leave you hanging. It isn't all their fault. HQ is incredibly understaffed and there is too much work to go around. People are constantly forced into situations or projects that they do not have the skills to deal with and reprimanded when things go wrong. Rules are not spelled out well (which is really bad in engineering) and you are essentially flying by the seat of your pants. I should also mention that this is a good place to gain experience but you will probably be paid less than market rate. The culture is also extremely negative.
