Pros: Nice facility, good health benefits, profit dividends instead of stock options (private company).
Cons: The hierarchy of the company allows for the network of managers to protect each other and perpetuate a toxic culture. There's a big focus on process for many parts of the company, but not in terms of recourse for managers abusing their power.
