Pros
One of the biggest employers in Grinnell, Iowa. A lot of people there worked in the company for more than 10 years. Some are employed there for more than 20 years. This company had been recognized as one of the best employer in Iowa not ones and not twice. As far as I know this company routinely has an "A" rating as a re-insurer. Larry Jansen himself appeared to be the most dynamic person on site.
Cons
Cannot say much about professional services provided by the company. Internally - very conservative, to the point of being lethargic. Technologically - traditional to the point of being stagnant. Most homogeneous place I ever worked at, as well as most nepotistic. All but two advanced IT workers that I had professional respect for left before me.
