Pros

Inclusive, transparency, open door policy for any and all suggestions, complaints without retaliation. Pay is higher than most.

Cons

You have to give blood, sweat and tears to advance. They say that there is always room for advancement but after 9 years I'm in the same position. I am good at what I doubt I am also a body they don't want to loose.
