      Pros

      Small company so high visibility

      Cons

      Toxic management culture Values are just wall decorations. Poor pay No recognition No merit increases No performance reviews No objective scale for performance measurement or rating. Bonuses completely subjective and as per manager discretion.

      Pros

      It's a large stable company with lots of facilities nation-wide. There are many experienced people working there that can teach you every facet of the industry, so when you move on you have some experience.

      Cons

      No potential for growth. Severe case of 'Good ol boys' syndrome. Nepotism in the corporate HQ is rampant. Most managerial hires are from outside the company rather than promoting from within. Stifling PC culture. Anyone except outside sales are treated as a liability, no matter what their contribution to the company. I once saved Allen over $100k per year and barely got an attaboy, let alone anything else. Women and minorities are relegated to only work in Accounting, IT, or if they happen to be attractive they can make it in the product line.
