-As an employee-owned company, all members of the business are stakeholders and care for company's performance
-ESOP is fantastic with a three-year vestment period
-Incredibly difficult to be fired, job security!
-Health benefits are mint for singles (and less-so for families)
-Pay is in-market for job titles, although slow for internal advancement.
Cons
-Slow with market changes
-Conservative with allocation of funds and strategies
-No 'new' job creation in smaller locations... only replacing vacancies by death, retirement, or turnover
