      Pros

      Great place to learn, or retire. The company is very conservative and therefore is stable. Layoffs do happen in some divisions, but are really due to sales and margin reasons.

      Cons

      Old culture, very old. Heavy topside and management needs to thin out. Very, very conservative and beurocratic and slow to adapt to new processes / technology.

      Pros

      The benefit package is terrific and the intrinsic value of working in such a great field where we really make a difference in people's lives is rewarding. Columbus is also a great city to work. A great family city with lots to do.

      Cons

      Management denegrates the value of employees and tries to wring every iota of time and effort irregardless of the imalance in your life. There is minnimal positive feedback but you sure do hear if there's a problem. Everyone is stressed and the morale is really horrible. There are still layoffs of really really good, talented people while others who have perfected the "suck-up" get promoted.

      Pros

      They have great benefits including 401K, profit sharing and pension. The health insurance is pretty good as well. They do try to keep any extra time to a minimum.

      Cons

      Entrenched management means very little room for advancement. They seem to all stay in their same jobs, so there isn't any room for others to advance. There are some situations where people move to other departments or other divisions which helps. However, most other divisions are located in Chicago, so you really need to be there to have any additional opportunities.
