Pros

- Work life balance - Salary is okay

Cons

- Lack of promotions. Even with on the job training and skills promotions still rely on what college degree you completed. - Higher positions are usually filled by external hires instead of looking at internal employee capabilities - Lack of clear development plans for employees. Employees are constantly told, "It is up to the employee how they want to develop." There is no guidance for options or opportunities. - Constantly shifting project priorities - Not a lot of projects to work on on the R&D side
