Pros

Job security/stability. Such a low bar for performance that anyone can look like a superstar with minimal effort. Work from home flexibility. Work/life balance.

Cons

Mind numbing. Nothing interesting to work on. It's an assembly line mentality, no one is excited or passionate about anything they do. Constant "re-orging", and shuffling the house of cards. Way too much middle management who serves no real purpose. Politics. The health care plan (and benefits overall) are really poor. Employees aren't treated like valued resources.

Pros

Discount was pretty nice to have

Cons

Management was changed very frequently that right when one person would finally get their system in order, someone else would be hired to take their place. Also the pay was really bad, like it only became 15 right before I was leaving.
