Pros

Nice group of people to work with. 37.5 hour work week. Co-workers are understanding and are usually very easy to work with.

Cons

Management promotions here are not based on merit or expertise, it is a popularity contest. Managers are not concerned about the employees and are only concerned with continuing the status quo. This company has no plan in place to retain millennials, and is actually driving them away-the old boys club style and lack of employee moral will contribute to this company's downfall unless they adapt to attract and retain young people, if you are a young person, look for work elsewhere as it is unlikely your values and work style will fit the value of this company. Low employee morale- ties are required everyday and the company is so cheap that essential things like the office coffee machine will break and not be replaced. Finally-Pay is below industry average, not a lot of room for financial or professional growth is allowed here unless you are heavily favored by management or know the right people.

Pros

No pros for this company. The need to come into the 21st century and not in the stone age.

Cons

Only care for long-term employees, no loyalty nor compassion. Discriminatory practices.

Pros

Competitive Salary Solid Benefits Great Bonus Plan Awesome Christmas Bonus Competitive Vacation Plan Discount on Insurance Discounts through auto suppliers

Cons

Associates said they were unhappy because they were underpaid, but the miserable people never left. Salary improved, those who were miserable, stayed miserable and seem to feast on trying to bring others down. There is a culture against firing, but there are MANY who should go. A few years ago, there was an executive tour and everyone was told, "if you aren't happy, leave," but no one did. Solid good old boys club, not bad work if you can get it, but unless you have serious * kissing skills or family connections, it's not likely. Micro management for everyone one, it's not just the little people, those above you are on puppet strings too.
