Pros

Not many anymore. Good Benefits

Cons

I am waiting for someone to die on the job in order for them to make changes to the field. They are one of the lowest paying companies in the industry. The boys/girls club still exits here. If your not liked you will never move up. No matter how good of a job you do. If your with the company over 20 years you're now a liability, Even though when the lose the next person, Who do they ask to pick up the pieces? The old timers! Or as one manager put it ( The Dinosaurs) The salary cap is in place for anyone below midlevel management. They have you buy and sell your business constantly going after your base salary! An inclusive company, Not a chance. I've been attacked many a time for pointing out problems. Your not allowed to discuss any of this! As I was told once. I was lucky I wasn't FIRED for pointing out things that are detrimental to employees. They have councils for everything else in the company Except for an Employee council for the rights of the employees. For such an Inclusive company, why not? Oh and we really need to revue the training for new people. The trainers in the field are people that were never trained right themselves. More service training is needed. One field trainer per area. As it is I will probably be fired for this post, from the Inclusive company.

Pros

A job and make some money

Cons

Everything. You are on your own to sink or swim. If you have a family or a life outside of work you and kiss them goodbye because you will never see them again. You will drive 5 hour one way and work 9 hours in the hot sun with only a 30 minute lunch break and then drive 5 hours back home only to have to do it again the next day which is only a few more hours.
