Pros

Great family oriented company. Great pay. Not micro-managed. Huge growth. Co-workers always supportive. Great management. Customers always first. Great product, great support. Not always a perfect company, but the best I've worked for.

Cons

Once the company got sold, it seemed to grow faster than some could handle. It started to become more apparent (from top management) that the money was more important than customers and employees. It felt like it was starting to tumble out of control. Other management did try to protect their employees as much as they could so they would not feel the stress. Also, not much opportunity to climb the ladder.

Pros

JBL Ascend has great benefits. They are a bit pricey but they cover health, dental & vision. There is a strong value place on employees especially those that contribute at a high level. Employees have a straight line to Executive Management so that their ideas are heard. Very strong understanding of the importance of work/life balance. Everyone participates in the bonus program.

Cons

Publishing industry is going through changes and JBL needs to be faster to market.

Pros

PTO policy is great, pay is very good, coworkers very friendly and welcoming. Convenient location for me. Good opportunities for promotion and career movement.

Cons

Very unstable. Major reorganization happens about every six months. Lots of unnecessary meetings. Processes are missing or not fully developed. Everyone is overloaded. Rapid employee turnover.
