Pros

Quite simply: The work is interesting (or at least looks interesting on your resume), your career advancement is up to you, which is a huge plus IF you have an entrepreneurial spirit, if not, you'll get no where. The pay is good, hours are flexible and dress is pretty casual (some wear shorts, but that is frowned on, jeans get no comment). The company is large and you can meet many people from diverse backgrounds that can help you outside of worklife (part time realtors for instance)

Cons

Entrepreneurial spirit is a must. If you're not willing to sell yourself both to peers, and management there isn't much chance for good advancement. There are few mentors, and few willing to really help out younger employees. The company is making an effort, but follow through is lacking. New, exciting initiatives are launched, and then forgotten.

Pros

Drive to work is relatively close to home and traffic is not too much of an issue. 401k available, dental available, medical available, and vision benefits available. Company matches your 401k dollar for dollar up to 4 percent. Some sectors are given the opportunity to share in the profit at the end of each year. The company provides a new percent goal each year that ranges from 1 percent to 4 percent. Of course, the 4 percent goal can never be reached. Average bonus received each year normally runs around 2.5 percent against the employees yearly salary. New employees receive 2 wks vacation after 1 year and accrues additional hours for each year worked thereafter

Cons

cronyism and nepotism exists among the management
