Pros

Very good benefits, company outings and good family / work balance. Nice opportunity for continuing education and training.

Cons

Management does not enforce any policies. The ones who don't care and cause problems are allowed to continue this behavior with no consequence and sometimes they are promoted! No kidding. Makes it frustrating to those who care and are trying to do their jobs and move up the ladder (a small ladder).

The salaries lag behind others in the same field. Needs to move more to a field service company in some of it's products to help diversify in the industry.
