      Pros

      Lots of training available. You can find an online tutorial on anything. Tuition reimbursement is immediately available. Lunch can be deducted from your paycheck.

      Cons

      Promotions and opportunities for growth are only available to those who are friends with upper management and it's blatantly obvious.

      Pros

      As a nonprofit and nonpublic organization, there is a genuine desire to serve customers. Profits are important but the focus is on enhancing returns to participants, not stockholders. Pay is good generally, except in low level back office and call center functions. Benefits are also good and the work environment is comfortable.

      Cons

      The pay for performance mantra doesn't really work. Just like most companies, senior managers have their favorite employees who always get rated highly and the best bonuses. The job posting system helps low level staff move around the company but for higher level jobs it reverts to relationships, inside track recommendations and high pressure to favor minorities (postings are often done for policy/procedural purposes rather than to objectively consider a broad range of candidates).
