Pros

Good benefits, company has history of good performance,

Cons

Your success will ultimately mean your failure. History always measured across the short term, making a financially good year a punishment come the following year.

Pros

Great Place to plan out a great career! We are like one big family in the seattle district, we would all go great lengths for one another! There is great pay great benefits, even in these hard economic times.

Cons

It can be very difficicult to be promoted when you are having to go against the MTPS. We don't really think its very fair for the rest of us in the company that have worked so hard and for so long just to be ignored. The MTP program should really be re-evaluated, a longer training period for one example, and you shouldn't have to have a certain college degree just to be eligable for the program. We keep hiring MTP's when there are so many that deserve to be promoted and can't because there are to many MTP's in the company.
