Pros

company pretty much decides to lay off people on a whim across the whole building. tells you the future plans the day before they happen

Cons

no job security. and the retention isnt based upon any sort of seniority or time invested within company rather its a dartboard and random at best. ive never met a company where they underpay people as much. and then they give raises to those people who make the least amount so they think they are making a boat load when in fact its not a competitive salary after a raise. dont get me started on the number of hours you have to work. no one cares if your over worked. balance is important.

Pros

Good people at the local level. The work is engaging and challenging.

Cons

Too many to count. Career advancements are extremely limited. Pay raises are minimal and don't get close to keeping up with inflation even for top performers. At the corporate level they are using acquisitions to hide massive layoffs. They return billions in profit to investors consistently, but there is still a constant threat of layoffs and multiyear freezes on pay raises even with inflation and solid corporate profit.
