Pros

Employee driven company all ways looking to better the work environment over all.

Cons

getting feed back about performance or interviews with other departments is very difficult. they seem to encourage you to apply within the company but depending on the department can be very hard to know what is going on.

Great Company... Depending on the Position

Pros

Some really great people to work with depending on the position you are in. Most people have been with the company a long time, and some are extremely knowledgeable. Good benefits. On-site cafeteria, on-site fitness center, on-site medical clinic, on-site bank, on-site convenience store.

Cons

Upper management does NOT listen to the people that are actually doing the work, allowing them to make millions each year. LOTS of overtime, depending on the department and time of year... sometimes it seems neverending. The company sees everyone as expendable, but I guess that is almost every company nowadays.
