Pros

There is a lot of opportunity for growth within the company. It has also been around for 150 years so you know it's going to be around for awhile.

Cons

The hours that you work at long and very hard, especially when you start out. Plan on working 60+ hrs if you work in operations.

Pros

salary for management is pretty good, but it's the one and ONLY positive thing I can find to include in this list- if life weren't so expensive, i'd leave sooner rather than later... but leave i will

Cons

- it's not about WHAT you know in order to move up; it's about WHO you know- matter of fact, the best way to move up is to foul up super badly - employees are regarded as numerical assets rather than living breathing people - you get attention only when you've brought negative attention down on them (senior management); rare is the congratulatory word on a job well done
