Pros

Training + stepping stone. For a first job you can make good money.

Cons

Work life balance, not long term career unless you fit the mold (must move where they want, move every few years if successful, never slow down even if you're a top player.... go go go...never gets easier). Even their top execs that : "Bleed Green" will tell you they want to come Stanly move. Reality is they have kids and want to be there for them but can't unless they lie to upper management and sneak out during field days. It's not a long term career unless you want ro be micromanage and sneak out without them knowing OR be a working horse the rest of your life and take pride in that. There are companies out there that pay better, advance just as good, have a better reputation but you CAN STILL HAVE AN AMAZING LIFE!!!

Pros

* Fast learning and professional skill growth. * Great people and strong teams. * Recognized name in the OKC community. * Valuable experience that strengthens future career opportunities, especially in Tech.

Cons

Over the past couple of years, career growth has felt extremely limited. Promotions and meaningful raises have become increasingly rare, and many employees believe these decisions are being driven from the very top. Layoffs and terminations have also become common, creating a constant sense of uncertainty. High performers often take on high-visibility projects with aggressive timelines and limited support. The expectations are unrealistic, and even successful delivery doesn’t usually lead to recognition or advancement. Leadership tends to make decisions very late, creating unnecessary urgency and forcing teams into last-minute scrambles. Benefits have declined, opportunities for advancement have become scarce, and overall morale has suffered significantly. There are talented people here and it can be a good place to gain experience, but I would view it primarily as a stepping stone rather than a long-term destination.
