Pros

Laid back atmosphere Cool bosses, with great understanding Vacation is encouraged, so taking time-off is usually easy.

Cons

Wage is low, And the yearly raises of 2% at such a low wage is almost non existent. Very few advancement opportunities, Unless you are good friends with management, you can pretty much forget getting a chance at any advancement. There is an extreme amount of favoritism, alot of positions are filled without giving current employee's a chance to interview.

Pros

Not many pros. Can’t think of any. People were nice at first but then they all got fired around me. Replaced countlessly.

Cons

If you are not part of “The Foot Hills” then you are already on your way out the door. This is a mafia within the company that lie to the cooperate level employees about wrecks, etc. if you aren’t part of the club and you tell cooperate the truth you get the boot.
