Pros

It's a relaxed environment and the management tends to treat employees equally despite amount of time worked there.

Cons

If you start off as the weekend worker, they expect you to ALWAYS do it from that day forward, so it's hard to get weekends off.

Pros

401k and Pension Plan are great

Cons

Things are done on a need to know basis. Once you get in with the company, there are a lot of politics and red tape that prevent you from acheiving your budget. They will tell you there is no Bonus CAP, when in reality they limit your total potential earnings by not allowing you to open new accounts in certain areas and by not allowing you to call on certain customers.

Pros

Great People Great CEO They are committed to growth and success and will invest in thier people Great organization to work for at the beginning of your career

Cons

There is some very dangerous micro-managing happening that is going to drive out some of the most talented performers in the company. Some of the upper management is questionable, and threatening jobs seems to be the sole form of motivation.
