Pros

I can't think of any... I guess discounted gear....?

Cons

Horrible Italian management sprinkled in with ski bums who have no concept of business development. No growth. Horrible pay. Expecting 60+ hr weeks. High turnover (I wonder why).

Pros

Good benefits. PTO is generous. Healthcare is good.

Cons

Upper management creates annual sales goals that are unachievable. They put stress and pressure on the rest of the company to ensure they can reach them. Raises are 2% or less.
