Pros

Great benefits, lots of opportunities for promotion. They do promote from within.

Cons

A lot of offices closed so they are rather spread out now. If I lived close to one of them I would still happily be working for them.

Pros

Good company to start with if you need to gain some experience and then transition to a better opportunity. Good friendly work environment, most of the employees are good people.

Cons

The greatest set back seems to be the disorganized corporate structure, at times it seems like a really top heavy company were there much too many managers and executives and yet not enough leaders and will to get their hands dirty and actually work to get goals accomplished.
