Pros

Company is moving in a new direction. New system in place and a lot of management leaving. This opens seats to move up. A lot of people talk about not able to grow, but the some just to do bare minimum and expect to be rewarded or recognized. With my new system in place and the centralized LCL things were crazy and unorganized but things are starting to improve. Anytime there is a huge change in a company of course things are not going to be good, but its adjusting slowly and improving everyday. I started as a temp and got hired 5 months later. After 6 months of being an employee promoted to manager. They always look within the company first and send out job posting to branches. If you want to move up or move to another position you always can.

Cons

When hired within another department or promoted. Some management make real difficult to let you go. They get bitter and hold against you sometimes. Things are a mess with accounting. They need to give better training. They have a lot of senior staff stuck in the 80's and have old ideas. They find technology intimidating.
