Business Outlook

Pros

Benefits and pay were the only reasons that would make one stay. No weekend work, no overtime available, tuition reimbursement was available.

Cons

No value for employees, does not promote from within. I was laid off after 10 years of working here. Company made no effort to find me another position available.
