Pros

Bonuses, decent coworkers. Decent benefits. OK management. Decent for LGBTQ memebers.

Cons

You basically have to live there. If you ask for time off you feel as if you're getting punished for doing something wrong. No stock options, no benefits for part time employees. If you're a student, don't expect benefits if you need to take more than two days off to further your education despite your outspoken interest in moving towards the corporate side of the business. Pay is not the greatest considering what you do, as a technician you are better off working for Costco and installing only tires all day and make more money than you would doing vehicle maintenance and repair. Also no-one really follows policy, constantly witness no torque sticks being used, no doubles being done, no step 7, and you are expected to do the work of 4 people although you're just an individual (e.g. if a job takes 5 hrs you have 1 hour to complete it).

It was great company to start your engineering career. Compensation level was good for beginner. This company was very flexible of your location.

After several years working for them they didn't offer career opportunities I wanted. It required too much traveling.
