Pros

Great work environment, strong culture, extremely high ethics, superb leadership. Of course, there may be some locations in which this is stronger than others, but in general one finds very comfortable expressing ideas without fear of retaliation, we get fairly enough recognition for the things we do well and fair feedback on the things we do not do so well. I am very proud of the ethics of the company and I have never feared doing the right thing independent of the consequences that may carry. The piece of mind that this provides is priceless!!!

Cons

Compensation may be below average for similar responsibilities; it is tough to get a salary increase.

Pros

Pay is good, especially on holidays! you get days off during the week and you work every other weekend

Cons

The schedule is hard, 12 hour days for 1 month then 12 hour nights then switch back. the environment is tough, the work load is heavy. not always the support you need to help you. favoritism, Management can be difficult, sink or swim type of culture, The testing is nearly impossible to get through. In the end you can do a great job in learning the job, if they don't want you, you will be replaced!
