Pros

Great meals, Decent Benefits, Beautiful Scenery.

Cons

Micro management. Promotions based on how popular you are not necessarily skills or experience. The CEO there destroyed the values that the Refuge was founded on. It is basically a hospital in the woods now. He turned valued employees that would give their souls for the place, into robots that hate going into work and seek employment elsewhere. Its all about the money and then the client and last but not least the employee.
