Pros

Decent benefits, summer Friday afternoons off, vacation time and holiday time.

Cons

People are expected to know everything and are reprimanded when they don't. There are very few promotions given. Upper-level management can't let lower-level managers make decisions on their own. They have to have their hands in everything.
