Pros

Work from home 2-3 days a week and pension but so do most other companies.

Cons

Salaries way below market in this area and they don’t care. They pay new hires more than employees that have been there 5-10 years. Making millions of dollars with minimal annual increase for workers. Expect more work with less pay. They reduce salaries depending on the region if you request a transfer. Nepotism is big in this company…husbands and wives in same department…so unfair. The only way for promotion is to be a yes person or kiss up. Their goal is to pay employees less money but increase work load with less people. 10 people resigned in a year in Charlotte but they don’t seem to think money was the key issue with people telling them they were paid 20-25% more to do the same job. They rather hire college graduates or teachers with no experience than increase our salaries. They self insured so you pay more out of pocket for medical! Employee had 25th year anniversary and the company would not buy them a celebration cake. The team had to pay out of pocket for the cake. They make you pay for HO trips upfront and reimbursed on the back end where most companies provide a credit card. If the plumbing goes bad we have to get in our car and go to the grocery store to use the restroom instead of closing the office. If you tell the truth and ask too many questions they find reasons not to promote you. They want you green and drinking their kool-aid.

Pros

A pension, if you're willing to sacrifice an entire career doing something better and more meaningful in order to get it. Some good co-workers.

Cons

Abysmal compensation package, especially when profit sharing isn't distributed, which it hasn't been for the past two years. You're likely going to need a second job to live comfortably. Fundamentally dishonest and incompetent senior management who surround themselves with themselves and only hear and listen to themselves and then congratulate themselves on how great they sound to themselves while telling everyone else in the company what great decisions they are making, all while making the lives of the employees positively miserable.

Pros

Managers are very helpful and do not micromanage. The employees are great and fun to be around.

Cons

The work is unfulfilling, and you are overwhelmed with the workload that is put on you.
