Pros

Good benefits (although insurance is going downhill in recent years by getting more expensive and having higher deductibles.)

Cons

After 16 years on the same job, it's still unpredictable enough that it's almost impossible to plan a life outside the job. Covid-19 vaccine mandate. Very greedy company, so much so that they try to weasel out of paying you for "extra" work that they required you to do, but that you have to "file a claim" for to get compensated for--and they often deny paying the claim on technicalities that they don't explain to you. They're constantly making changes that more often than not don't improve anything.
