Pros

Excellent co-workers: Most people are kind, loving, outdoorsy, and could be your lifelong friends, too.

Cons

There is no future moving up the ladder unless you belong to a specific category. No matter how good a performance you show up. The management doesn't care. People can do mediocre jobs and get promoted. It's all politics and chemistry with the managers.
