Pros

-High emphasis on technical training even on topics not directly tied to your discipline; making you well rounded. - Local management will hold people accountable - Great benefits - Directors accessible by subordinates due to their office proximity - Once you prove yourself, they will give you the room to grow and not micro-manage you - Corporate SME that was always available if needed but never over-bearing and burdening you with work.

Cons

- At the time I was with the company, there were no mid-level management in engineering to develop someone - My perception was that my age didn't allow some opportunities to be open to me

Pros

Excellent benefits, bonuses, vacation, community minded, usually concerned with doing what is right even if its not standard policy.

Cons

Raises are really mostly cost of living adjustments. The expectation to work hard is always there which is fine, but every missed day is counted carefully. Sometimes it feels like their attitude is: if you don't like it, leave.
