Pros

The compensation and benefits are at the top of the scale.

Cons

There is no direction within the company other than sit down and produce. They talk a lot about quality and being beyond #1, but there is no development of people and programs. Fort Worth is poised to have all of it's assets gobbled up and sent to NJ, CA, or GA.
