Pros

Great benefits, especially for full time. They have good training on company history, concepts and how to be an effective manager.

Cons

They preach, "Create a better everyday life…., yet they don't practice it. They expect more than they are willing to give. They say it is ok to make mistakes, yet they write you up for everything you do wrong or don't do to the expectation of your manager, while other managers allow their employees do what you just got written up for. They expect you, especially managers, to have your life revolve around work. They do not have any work life balance, not even for part timers.
