Pros

You will not work much past a typical 40 hour work week. Not much traffic in the area so if you live in Muscatine it is a quick commute to work.

Cons

If you want to step back in the 1950's regarding policies and workplace harassment then this is the place for you. Systems are incredibly antiquated with no push for change. Upper management has no clear direction and constantly bicker without any kind of cooperation. Most if not all of senior leadership is incompetent in their role and this is because the CEO puts friends in high places without any regard for talent. Office environment is very cliquey as most employees grew up in the area. Your time in office and travel time is scrutinized by your fellow peers. The culture is very "good old boys club" and employees talk openly about religious snd political topics that are very far right conservative tea party views. No paid maternity or paternity leave. Has no sick leave policy and no direction on taking sick days so leads to confusion as some managers take vacation time and others do not. Also has very poor vacation as compared to others in the industry but this is negotiable. There is a flex time policy but it is a joke because the culture does not acknowledge or allow for it.
