Pros
The "Open door policy" is a good culture to promote within the company.
Good starting salary even for those who have no experience.
A nice, warm, friendly "Family" of colleagues.
Cons
The open door culture should have, ideally, pushed the employees to be more involved, but due to certain practices, employees are more or less disempowered and disconnected from their jobs.
Work/life balance doesn't exist for employees with talent (and they're not compensated for it as well unless there's a threat of resignation).
Promotion is either slow or non-existent. Getting an increase (performance-based) is extremely difficult despite tenure and quality of work.
Politics and very obvious favoritism. Promotions left and right to neigh justifiable positions.
Managers aren't interested in understanding what an employee's job is and what it takes to complete it.
Company spends way too much money sponsoring international flights of their executives when they should be investing in training, and employee perks (dinner? party? jacket? free pens, maybe?), AND hiring an operations head that they could trust enough so they don't have to fly to their other sites.
