Pros

Benefits are good. Some managers listen to employees.

Cons

Unrealistic expectations. Constant turnover of employees. Management styles in some areas is intimidation or "bullying". In lower levels much advancement is not based on ability. Inconsistency in policies for filling positions. Some people can "transition" into positions while others must apply and compete for the same position. Pay raises and bonuses in lower levels are poor.
