Pros

1. stable. 2. backed by CAT.

Cons

1. the pay for San Diego is not comparable to the industry. 2. to get promoted you have to have someone related to you (big on nepotism). 3. A lot of unqualified managers with no degrees or sub-bar degrees from online trade schools. 4. No one interested in new ideas, they will laugh at you if you suggest anything. 5. Nepotism is a huge problem! everybody is related !
