It's an old school Corporate thing.

Pros

The "Culture" allows for a flexible schedule, "as long as you get your work done", so actual shift hours can vary based on your abilities to accomplish tasks and your personal needs. Certain job roles have plenty opportunity for all-expense travel. Outstanding benefits for Health Insurance and 401k.

Cons

"Typical" Corporate environment - this is not a modern "Hip" place to work; Values are based on old foundations. Office "Cliques", which as you can imagine can be stressful to individuals who do not participate. "He said, she said" politics. Not everyone honors the "Culture" - they take advantage of the flex schedule, which can grate on you if you are an honorable person who does. Personal merits are minimized and not grounds for advancement - who you know and how well you get along with them matters more. Spend too long here and you will become a corporate cog.

Pros

Freeman is very solid and does many acquisitions each year to grow their offerings for their clients. Overall a great company and a company that does care about their employees. Family owned is both a pro and a con and it's obvious you need to be on the "in" if you want to be promoted or continue employment.

Cons

Lots of politics for a family privately held company who wants it both ways of being able to run things as they (the family) wants and then running it as a Fortune 500 company. Everyone is overworked and expected to work 50-60 hours per week on average.
