Pros

Safety focused, local office dedicated to gaining new business and growing existing business breadth. Office has changed over last several years in a very positive way (age, diversity, talent). If you work hard for the company and don't try to claw your way up, you will do well. If you are always asking for career planning and a set recipe for personal growth, you will be grumpy.

Cons

Having said info above, career planning and expectations can be better. HR can be much better.
