Pros

Working there for over 3 years, I was able to meet a lot of great people with a lot of great ideas.

Cons

Management was very micro-managing and never accepted feedback from their subordinates. Unable to network, management would not allow it.

If you like bureaucracy and wheels that turn slowly, this is the place to work.

Business Outlook

Pros

Salaries and benefits are good.

Cons

Senior management (VP) often appointed in positions in which they had no prior experience. Company positions itself as a "family;" in truth, it's an autocracy. Difficult to take initiative and get things done. Everything is mind-numbingly process oriented. Persons unqualified for positions often permitted to keep positions until they quit or are laid off. ZERO job security.
