Pros

Co-workers are friendly and many friendships were made during my tenure there. Everyone wants to succeed and everyone works together to get projects done.

Cons

Constant fear of job layoff can be a difficult work environment. Many times employees who are left after a layoff in a department are expected to continue performing or increase productivity with less manpower.
