Pros

Progressive company, involved leaders within the company who actively look for ways to involve employees. Many opportunities to advance within the company as well as opportunities for the employees to develop as well-rounded individuals, such as charity and volunteer events. A very close-knit community with friendly, caring staff.

Cons

Some staff get too personally involved in others' lives, which can result in an uncomfortable work experience. Some staff not readily available for assistance.
