Do not know how to treat textured. Favoritism. Bias. Not a good place to work for people of color. A lot of politics and very underpaid.

Pros

Benefits and profit sharing after being fully vested which takes 3 years.

Cons

Low pay and zero raises. Bonus structure was terrible. It'll depend on which branch or office you work at. Office politics can play a big role, a lot of gossiping and being bias, trying to mold kids fresh out of college.
