Pros

They pay very well if you can get hired on. Even their lowest paying job is fantastic for Idaho. you get a decent amount of vacation to start with.

Cons

The work life balance is terrible. This is especially true if you have low seniority. There are a lot of times where you will have to work seven 12 hour shifts. Most career opportunities in management are given to external candidates.

Pros

HQ building is pretty cool and you can get some neat tours of company facilities. Work life balance is generally pretty good.

Cons

The company just has no idea what its doing regarding IT. Most management has been there 25+ years and still wants to operate like its the 90s. Head of IT is an accountant and the department is treated like a necessary evil and employees are told they provide no tangible value. Making any kind of impact is actively discourage and 'stay in your lane' is a core tenet. If you want to just show up, grind, and go home, this is the place for you.
