Pros

job security, good pay if you're in an area with few opportunities

Cons

Unprofessional, straight out mean and bullying behavior from management, unlawful and discriminatory practices towards employees and customers. Pay is not worth the bs you have to put up with. Rampant nepotism decides the opportunities and salary you can achieve. Poor management equals the overall failure of mission
