Not as good as it sounds

Pros

There are good, sincere and hardworking people who get the work done. Helps make going to work every day more bearable

Cons

Leadership takes advantage of good hardworking people especially those in areas where job options with other employers are scarce. They are all about lean and mean not refuse to listen. They can claim, advertise and script interviews but day to day dictation style leadership don't lie. Insurance extremely expensive, makes it unaffordable for lots of people. They are happy and no attempt to hide it when associates take up insurance with their spouse somewhere else because that saves company money. That's not people centric.

Pros

St. Louis is a nice place to live. Most of the people you will work with are good hardworking folk.

Cons

There is barely any room for movement in the company. Most promotions seems to be on who you know (or even better are related too), not on your ability, They have all these great things to say about their "truly human leadership" but in rarely, if ever, live up to their words.
