Pros

Some great people working here. Good opportunities for technicians and those without higher level degrees.

Cons

Management is terrible and people are promoted based on who they are friends with or who goes to their church! Unless you know the group that you are applying to and know who will be your boss, don't work here! People hate each other and it's a very toxic environment.
