Pros

Good benefits, flexible schedule, and short travel from the city.

Cons

Work is uninspiring and boring.

No job I've had has required more than a high school education.

Lots of dumb people work here due to managers only hiring kids from their alma mater. Management is generally a mess.

You'll have to work here for 15-20 years before you even sniff any preliminary design work.

Promotions are often less than 3%.

Yearly raises are about 2.5%.

Pay is good enough to make you think, "Hey, at least I have a job."

Advice to Management

Start looking at college graduates from top engineering schools and not just the most common one in the area.

Eliminate unnecessary mid-level management jobs.
