Pros

The job security is great! Pay advancements are good within the first few years of employment and the benni's are ok as well.

Cons

The information given to you upon interview and before working is poor. I was told I would be working in planning and after I started working and took the bonus that I had no chance of working in planning. I feel lied to. The communication was also terrible. they gave you all the infomation at the interview and got you in the door, but once you were in the door they failed miserably. I felt like I was fed to the wolves. No desk, no computer and to be frank work that can be done by technicians.
