Pros

The people within departments, willing to help you out when you need it. The pay was fair and got opportunities to travel for the job

Cons

Processes can take a long time to get something done. Thinks that they are like a small business but grew large quick and have out of date processes to achieve goals. Executives are looking out for themselves since they know they have tenure with the company

Pros

The camaraderie amongst the team is outstanding. Most of management (team leads, supervisors, etc) truly do care and go above and beyond to help you grow. There is plenty of real world knowledge to gain through your first few weeks of training. You garner an amazing sense of accomplishment during some aspects of the job.

Cons

It's a 24/7 department so expect to work some holidays and weekends. The company will use their ideals of growth and development from within to lure you into a false sense of motivation. In my experiences, the company only promotes within for *certain* departments or people with *certain* skillsets. They will assign you more and more responsibilties as you progress through products and training, but your pay only increases slightly at the end of each year or after a promotion in the department (which can only happen if you take on much more responsibility). They say they want to help you grow and develop, but there are so many employees assigned to each team lead and supervisor that it's overwhelming and most employees end up stagnant or leaving. Pay is slightly below national average but has increased since I started.
