Pros

It is a recognizable company with good branch power. It is great for college graduates just starting out and needing a good stepping stone. There are plenty of positions available in various fields within the company, so there is definitely variety with what you can do. Management, depending on the location, will normally watch for employees with potential and groom them for upper management or an appropriate place in the organization. Although it should be said that once one gets to a certain level in the company they may have trouble with the politics of the organization and defending the company's moves.

Cons

It is very political and many times good people get cut. Wages are low, and lower level employees are put upon heavily, much more so than their position warrants. The company also has a large hierarchy and structure putting more stress on the lower level employees. Just like with all companies, everything flows down... unfortunately, the people at the top turn a blind eye to many things that go on in their organization. Some parts of the company are worse than others, but it could be said that this is true in most cases. It is not the most productive environment.

The current economic and geopolitical spectrum have been proving a challenge to this industry as a whole, thankfully we are a resilient outfit with the best people at the helm.

Pros

It is a decent place to work with a steady environment and meaningful day-to-day responsibilities. Overall, it's not a bad company to be a part of if you are looking for stability and purpose in your tasks.

Cons

The internal culture is highly political, and professional advancement often depends more on favoritism than merit. You frequently have to play corporate games and kiss up to management just to get ahead or be noticed.
