Pros

This is a beautiful picturesque place. The work is fun because it usually involves skiing or biking to some extent. Cool people around.

Cons

Management is literally all related. They promote people from WV over anyone. If you have a college degree and 15 years experience, a WV high school grad will get the promotion over you. But this place is not supposed to be a career. Because most mid management is under qualified they tend to develop cliques. If you’re smart you tend to be out, and if you are out you are definitely out. Not a bad place for a year or two between real life.
