Pros

In the unlikely event you end up being one of your manager's favorites you will be required to do very little work and will always get excellent reviews and maximum raises and bonuses. You will also be promoted over people with more experience and who are more deserving but who aren't with the in crowd. You will be working with a lot of very nice hardworking people who really what to do their best and who will never be treated fairly. The benefits are decent and the amount of vacation time is pretty good.

Cons

f you are not one of the manager's favorites your work will be scrutinized so your manager can justify giving you minimal if any raise or no bonus. management spends most of its time justifying the preferential treatment they give a select few employees. If you are over 40 forget about any advancement in this company. you will never be invited to any company activities that lead to advancement in the company. More than likely a 20 something who knows nothing will be promoted to a management position and will spend most of his or her time giving you "constructive criticism" and making your life miserable until you leave without any severance pay.

Pros

Great benefits (medical, PTO, retirement) Work well if time is needed off, no questions asked. No weekends or holidays. Compensation is fair.

Cons

There is way too much micro management. Too many chief's, not enough indians. Raises only once per year. Compensation is not based on performance, but rather "how the economy is doing"
