Business Outlook

Pros

Good benefits, good bonus if the company is making money.

Cons

Don't expect to get promoted unless you are related to someone or having an improper relationship with your supervisor. Also, managers that you do not even work for have the power to make your life miserable if they do not like you. Beware. They talk a lot about how important people are, but it's really all talk. Hard work counts for nothing here.
