Pros

Company is doing well overall and stock continues to go up New management should hopefully bring some new ideas and a different way of thinking Work life balance is fine overall, but some departments do work more than others

Cons

Career advancement is difficult unless you know the right people. Only a select few are promoted or rotated, while everyone else is forgotten Development of employees is lacking. Not many training opportunities Benefits and compensation are lacking. The company is cheap when it comes to its employees. Raises are less than 2% and pay is below market to begin with Systems are antiquated. Updates are underway but it will take some time Restructurings and layoffs have become the normal course of business over the last few years

Flexible work hours if going to school.

Very hard to have a work-life balance with their fair scheduling practices. Work nights one week then back to days and is hard to balance family life. Vacation and sick pay although are offered are very limited.
