Pros

The training and certain incentives are quite acceptable, possibly even more than satisfactory. For example, new employees are taught and prepared before starting to work.

Cons

There is very limited opportunity for advancement from entry level positions. The managers do promote from within but one has to be with the company for quite some time before being promoted.
