Pros

Pay is very fair. Benefits are decent.

Cons

I think generally speaking VRS is a very good place to work though the situation in IT is pretty horrible. There I've witnessed an unprecedented exodus of employees as a result of a nightmare manager hire. 10 of the 12 nearest cubes to my desk have been vacated in a year due to people running for the door to pursue employment elsewhere.

Pros

Benefits, pay, location. Genuinely friendly people.

Cons

It's still bound by some state government rules as an employer, but not a huge deal with the other benefits of this employer

Pros

Depends on position. Pro was limited customer contact

Cons

Poor management, inconsistent directives, you are pretty much treated poorly. Never been treated so poorly in my entire 35+ years working. Do not promote from within. Work system is a nightmare. If you don't work for investments, you don't matter.
