      Pros

      Great people from all different backgrounds work at this company. Everyone is always helpful and willing to share advice when starting out at the company.

      Cons

      Not too much room for growth. While I worked there i was able to move to a different department but I knew I wasn't able to ever be promoted.

      Pros

      - Great Pay - Company paid healthcare - Tuition Reimbursement

      Cons

      - Monotonous work - Ridiculous policies/standards - Chained to your desk for 8 hours (have to log out on your phone to even go to the restroom) - The title of my review is a direct quote from someone who had worked at the company for 25 years...I personally just need more of a sense of fulfillment out of my job

      Pros

      Work-life balance, pay and benefits. The company's total benefit package would rank among the best in the US if more about this privately held company were made public. Its a stable business with more than 100 years of slow, steady sustained growth.

      Cons

      It's a place for the tortoise, not the hare. Past decades of being obsessed with risk aversion and secrecy still constrain the company like an invisible hand. Current leadership is moving the company in a better direction, but there's still a bias towards resting on company laurels rather than pursue new and ambitious things. It's not a very invigorating approach to winning the race as an employee.
