Pros

It's a job. I like the PTO policy. Starting off you get 184hrs and they give you the option to buy up to an additional 5 days.

Cons

For it to be such a big company it takes way too long to pay out bonuses and incentive. The raises are a joke, insurance premiums way too high. Overall morale of the office is very low. Many stay because there is simply nowhere else to go. It sucks living check to check because we can't get paid what we're worth!!

Large company with alot of opportunity.

Cons

Sometimes too large and finding the right person to solve a problem when working in silos can be difficult.
