Pros

Job security and a company backed by Berkshire Hathaway A great "starter" company for people graduating from college, but don't plan on staying for more than 2 years.

Cons

Promotions almost completely based on tenure. Every decision literally goes through 12 layers of management, so don't expect to feel like you contribute. Culture promotes more of the same. Don't expect to get paid what you are worth. There is a lot of employee turnover.

Pros

Organized in the hiring and training process

Cons

They cared more about output and getting results than the understanding of all the knowledge they cram into us. In addition, we were in training/orientation with mostly supervisor candidates. Meaning, first, there were so many people that did things in vastly different ways which created confusion on expectations and overall objectives of the job. Secondly, it meant that those candidates were finding their footing and being evaluated just as harshly (if not more) than new hires, creating pressure that boiled over to almost every individual on a team.
