Pros

Many good people who have learned to excel without management involvement and decent work/life balance. Free parking. For anyone wanting a steady 9 - 5 with little pressure, this is the place.

Cons

Opportunities for advancement so limited as to be nearly non-existent. Education opportunities are at employee expense with some minor reimbursement at completion; however, there is no advancement even for a relevant professional designation or graduate degree. Senior management is utterly disconnected from the rank and file.
