Pros
-Nice people -Exceptionally generous benefits, for company size (No medical premium, 100% coverage after $500 ded) -Competitive edge (exclusive technology/science) -Great family company/community -Competitive wages for area
Cons
-Family owned company and there is no shortage of local family members. Will unabashedly bring in family to fill roles (as is their right) -Company trying to push into data services without the appropriate experience/resources. Restructured THE ENTIRE COMPANY around this vision, and has yet to show any market interest -Because of all the tight-knit family/small-community relationships, EXTREMELY confrontation averse. You can fail outright or be downright incompetent and managers will be hesitant to say anything until it's too late.
