Pros

The laid back atmosphere and teamwork are some of the best reasons to come in everyday. Work is fast paced and challenging . Customer base and territories are vast and you get to develop relationships with them. Better benefits than most employers in our town . Good hours that let you manage work and home life balance.

Cons

No bonus or commission for inside sales, difficult to move departments . Enjoyment of your job seems to vary greatly by department . Very minimal pay raises. Always buying new companies and adding their product line to the job duties with no additional pay or workforce. Can be hard to keep up with.

Pros

Good Pay, Decent Benefits, not much else.

Cons

They take lean too far. Never fail to Intrude on approved and scheduled vacation time/holidays because not enough staff to cover during these approved absences. Promise comp time but never receive it. Have to work two or more weekends a month.

Pros

Good products and brand recognition. Competitive pay and benefits. Many fine people pulling on the oars of a ship spinning in circles.

Cons

A maniacal obsession with the stock price and being valued 'like an electronics company instead of a wire company' is the mantra of senior management. If VP's of Sales aren't generating numbers in one year, they're out or exiled, re-igniting the whole merry-go-round yet again. The use of SDP is also mis-managed. Employees throughout the organization will do anything to avoid 'going red', and triggering a wave of countermeasures and extra monthly paperwork. Frequently they do the wrong thing for the business and customers just to avoid this death spiral.
