Pros

Very laid back culture - good place to work if you don't want to be pressured to perform or expand your skill set. Company is very active in philanthropy.

Cons

Nepotism is rampant, CEO himself drives the culture of nepotism. Slim chances of getting promoted in the corporate office if you don't go to CEOs church or have close family connections. Salary is significantly below Chicago/national average - don't expect competitive salary or any kind of significant annual merit increase Company is financially unstable - credit ratings have been improving through COVID sales bump but EBITDA is not sustainable/leverage is still unhealthy - virtually all growth has been through issuance of new debt
