There are perks to working for a big company too. Like benefits. I have yet to meet someone with better benefits than we have, and we don't pay a dime for them. Job security is probably the biggest perk also. I didn't want to have to worry about having a good job in the next 5 years, and you don't have that problem here either. Not to mention the pay. I am a HS Graduate that was in the Army for 4 years, and $72k a year was my worst year here. Not bad for an un-educated jack ass like my self.
There are some annoying things also though. Like Being so big that management at the top of the company really has no idea how things really work way down at the customer level. Or that the first thing they ask you when you apply for another job or for a management position is, what race and gender you are.
But if I ever find anything better, I'll go. It hasn't happened yet, and I doubt it will happen in the next 22 years before I retire. But I will keep looking.
