Pros

Decent work environment. Employees very good people - good to work with. They do have learning opportunities, but you have to be pro-active in signing up.

Cons

Has become like most other large companies - focused on bottom line. Used to be about creativity, teamwork and doing anything to please the customer. Now it is about process, cutting costs, and pushing more product. Professional advancement is almost non-existent. Any critical jobs seem to get filled from the outside. My manager does not provide any support. Too busy looking up the organization rather than around the department to really see what's going on. Out of touch.
