Pros

free food health insurance air conditioning heating sometime free food

Cons

There is no advancement if you are hired as technician. You will stay there for 20+ years working same job doing same thing every day. Management will tell you that you may be promoted this year but that never happens. I have stayed this position for almost 30 years with minimal raises. Do not join this company if you want to advance in your career. This is not the place to be.
