Pros

My job is challenging. I was quickly put into a leadership role. My manager pushes us to produce quality work. Job stability appears to be excellent. For me, the location is ideal as I am close to my family and friends (unlike my previous job). All overtime is paid beyond 40 hours/week. The 9/80 program that allows employees to work alternating 44 and 36 hour weeks and get every other Friday off is a big plus. The week off between Christmas and New Years is also a nice benefit. The relocation package was good.

Cons

There are no bonuses or profit sharing, stock options, stock purchase plan, etc. Salaries could be a more competitive, particularly considering the lack of an incentive plan.

Pros

Hybrid work environment (currently two days in office). Decent PTO that does carry over. Quarterly 1:1 with manager.

Cons

Lack of advancement opportunities unless you are willing to relocate, even than it's still difficult. no cross training or shadowing opportunities for those that want to advance career. Could be better at retaining the good, experienced staff before they leave to go elsewhere.
