Pros

Good benefits. 5 weeks vacation after 15 years with the company. Insurance is reasonable, but recently changed and isn't as great as it used to be.

Cons

Not much chance for promotion. Work is tedious. Industry volatile. Bonuses are always less than what they should be in my opinion for how "well" they say they performed that year. Out dated equipment that is constantly breaking. For a technological company, they don't invest much in giving employees decent computers to work with.
