Pros

-Stock that return 30% per year -bonuses -vacation time given off the bat is great if approved 15 days -401k matching -health insurance is a great plan and not too expensive to participate in -if you fit in work feels like hanging out with friends

Cons

-really long work hours and weekend work for salary employees is a standard for operations employees -they will move you like a piece of equipment and where they see fit at the flip of a switch (one minute your local at home the next day you could get a call to go to the armpit of America) -have to play the game to move up and be liked by many -if you don't fit in, you don't last long -they know they can control your work ethic with the golden handcuffs -you can work as the next level up, but I've seen many people stay at that spot for some time before actually getting the promotion

Pros

Just a very well run and professional organization. By far the best company I have been a part of. Great management, solid HR policies, great benefits and pay, and interesting projects.

Cons

Site supervisors can be a handful to deal with at times. Old school policies and mentalities can be frustrating. If you're not at your desk until after 5pm you are generally considered lazy regardless of what time you arrived, how productive you were, workload etc. .
