Pros

Great support system from head office. My direct manager is professional, flexible, and includes me in the decision making process. I feel valued and encouraged to grow within the job I hold and the company.

Cons

Always could use more money but money is not everything. If given the opportunity to move to different company with higher wages I would have to seriously look at the culture of the company. Measuring it against FSR.
