Pros

Competitive salary, great benefits! I work with people who really care about their jobs! Management has tried to create a transparent environment.

Cons

Company chooses to focus on development opportunities for those already in leadership positions, but does not offer much for "lower level" employees (the individual contributors). Outsourcing of some business processes have reduced visibility and control. It has also made departments very lean and at times overworked. Hard to deviate from day-to-day job duties to work on potentially beneficial projects or getting ahead on anything.
