Pros

Quality lower level employees that unfortunately turn over for reasons listed below

Cons

Management hires employees for a certain job then baits them into trying to do something different than what they were hired to do. They don’t give employees a chance to develop but expect them to know everything the moment they walk in the door. Employees are given no training or guidance when they start working here. The HR department admits they have no power to change the combative adversarial culture that’s been perpetuated over many years which is great for commiseration but terrible for enacting the needed improvements. Headcount restrictions, 3 year 401k vesting period, rampant employee turnover, and meager two weeks vacation for the first five years cannot attract the talent needed to sustain the business let along grow it (you do have the option to “buy” another week of time off).

Pros

Good pay and vacation. Good employee activities. Good Human Resource Manager. Good bonuses. Can't think of much else to meet the 20 word minimum for 'Pros'. Always open positions due to high turnover

Cons

Management lacks the leadership abilities to understand their employees. No recognition for people who do a good job. Do more with less resources is the philosophy. No mentoring, proper training...it's a here ya go hope you survive atmosphere. Set you up for failure type of place. Very high turnover for supporting departments.

Pros

Competitive salary, get good discounts through vendors.

Cons

Benefits, employee attitude, lack of leadership and directions from senior management. Quite possibly the worst place I have ever worked at. If you know someone high enough you will get promoted and rewarded for no apparent reasons.
