Pros

Great benefits, low barrier to entry, laid back work environment, ability to "work from home", nice location. Repetitive work is soothing...

Cons

Promotions based on seniority instead of ability and initiative. Incompetent middle management. Illegal immigrant farm workers receive a higher salary.

Pros

Own book runner and strategy. Good work life balance. Good working environment and nice people to work together

Cons

No much growth. Promotion to VP or higher is even forbidden based on company policy. Instead, ask people to move to different role. It doesn't make a lot of sense since it encourage people to find a new job.
