Vantaggi
The prestige and respect that follow A-B employees, above-average compensation and excellent benefits including on-site fitness centers, flexible work schedules, potential for telecommuting, on-site dining, comprehensive medical/dental/vision coverage, and perks such as complimentary beer (two cases per month), entertainment park discounts, flu shots, employee assistance programs, wellness programs, 401(k), Salaried Pension
Svantaggi
Opportunities for advancement are limited due to a firmly entrenched baby boomer employee population insistent on maintaining their employment and hesitant to adopt new technology or accept younger employees unless those individuals have been deemed 'worthy' by an elite group. The application and interview process is intensive and a significant barrier to entry. Job responsibilities are not commensurate with the qualifications and stated requirements of the positions leading to knowledge atrophy and frustration with wasting valuable skills and abilities. The level of bureacracy is prohibitive to getting things accomplished/solved by removing ownership and decision making responsibilities from the individuals ultimately responsible.
