      Business outlook

      Pros

      Not many at this time.

      Cons

      Sad to see a company what the company has turned into. Having worked here for many years it's impossible to think that this is a great company to work for. It used to be. Reviews and rankings they continue to get from other best company magazines must be paid for because it's far off from what I've heard from employees. Hiring process & promotion opportunities are terrible & often are just given to those who hiring manager is friends with. Looking into careers somewhere else.
