Pros

Campus, cafeteria, makes money despite itself.

Cons

Cuts and more cuts to benefits. leadership is stale. seems stuck in the past, claims to be innovative but with staff that has been there for 20 to 30 years on average, it's just a ploy to get customers from a dry pool. Median age of employee is in the low 50s. Sightings of Millennials is rare. Closely networked employees are the only ones who get promos, gridlocked organization due to legacy/older employees.
