Pros

Decent pay and benefits compared to other companies.

Cons

All employees who don't work at the corporate office are treated like red-headed step children. Management would send out emails about how the company was making good profit, but then layoff more employees so the owner could pocket more money. Management makes working for the company more stressful than it has to be.
