Pros

Good pay and benefits compared to anywhere else in idaho

Cons

Beware the mighty snake pit. Don't think you'll hire on and transfer to a better location. Reputations are tarnished by mere association with the bad apples.

Pros

Stable company with pretty good benefits and a pension plan. If you like a job where all you need to do is keep your head down and just survive, you'll love it here.

Cons

Unfortunately, the pension plan has created 'golden handcuffs' for many in leadership, and those leaders don't play well together. Far too much protection of individual turf, little if any cross collaboration, stifling productivity and creativity.
