Lots of potential that falls short in many ways

Pros

Pretty good benefits and pay is reasonable. Many of the employees are great people; unfortunately that stops as soon as you hit management.

Cons

Very dysfunctional management that create a culture of intimidation and coercion to keep people stuck in their positions rather than help them develop their skills, tools, and assets to the best of their ability. Small minded and pettiness seem to be virtues of the CEO as well as many of the middle level managers who often are insecure as many of their 'supervisees' are actually more qualified and educated than they are in many areas. Subsequently employees are not treated professionally but rather they are perpetually 'babysat' by management with many of the same techniques used to 'punish' them as in elementary school (i.e. they even call them 'time outs'!)
