Pros

Direct managers are generally supportive and easy to work with. The health insurance coverage is comprehensive and reliable for employees. A stable environment that is "okay" if you are looking for a steady place to work without too much pressure.

Cons

Extremely difficult to get a salary increase or promotion. Management used "declining company revenue" as a reason to stall raises, even after promising counter-offers that never materialized. The gap between performance and financial reward is frustrating.
