Pros

Benefits, Pension, Insurance, Nice Campus

Cons

After Buyout no one was considered on their merits. You were either "IN" or OUT. Upper Management played favorites, without regard to one's abilty.

Pros

Job security because I actually know what I'm doing and care compared to about 95% of people that work there.

Cons

Too much workload with no time given to get it done. Takes WAY too long to get a raise. People that have been there for almost seven years and are dedicated employees still only make ten cents over minimum wage. The only way to make more money is to move up with the company. The wage you get for doing that is not worth the stress of them setting you up for failure with too much workload and not enough time. The hours are terrible and all over the place with no structure which leads to burnout. There are times I work 11 days in a row and with no overtime because of how the pay periods work.
