Pros

The office in Cary is extremely clean, nice and new and the atmosphere is friendly. The free drinks, and free merchandise samples, are a great benefit. Depending on the department pay is competitive. The company is lean, which allows the employees to take on more responsibility and get a lot more broad experience as well as a significant amount of face to face time with upper management. Also it seems positions are always coming open because people are always leaving.

Cons

There is no women in Vice President roles, or women executive leaders.The corporate office runs really lean in a lot of departments. The Pantry rarely promotes within and fills most roles using external candidates. The company doesn't do a great job with developing the pool of inner talent and developing succession plans. The Pantry is a revolving door for Senior Management. It seems every year bonuses, department G&A budgets get significantly smaller. Most corporate support center employees don't get a bonus. Benefits are not great, they make you wait a year to enroll in 401k and company match.
