Pros

Great benefits - both salary and allowances, big brand, loyal customers, continuous coaching, training and mentoring, opportunities for travel, challenging technical products and services making the work interesting, embracing of technology making teleconferences very easy.

Cons

Very complicated internal processes, ruthless managers, limited career growth opportunities, lack of support and co-operation from bigger subsidiaries, kiss up to kick down organisation, lack of brand recognition or brand confusion - caused by assumption that brand itself is very big - causing under-investment in marketing.

Pros

Teamwork, the crew , good pay,

Cons

Long hours, forced 12hour shifts with no lunch break and over time, average week is 52 to 60 hours , short staffed regularly, management team not engaged on floor, managers with poor attitudes, no breaks. Promotions are based off of favoritism you will get the interview but they already know who they picked.
