Business Outlook

Pros

Have had 3 promotions in as many years at my time in the Box. Direct managers have been fabulous and understanding with medical leave and family emergencies for myself as well as my team.

Cons

The company as a whole acts entirely too segmented. While this office is coming along nicely into the corporate umbrella, it doesn't seem the company acts as one. Differing procedures and policies make communication between offices and even some departments considerably more difficult than necessary.

Business Outlook

Pros

Hmm.....can't think of any at the moment. We did get annual bonuses, up until the year I was let go, then they apparently stopped.

Cons

Underpaid, extremely poor management, very disorganized, too many to mention. Most of their "managers" have little to no experience & no formal education. One of the managers even agreed that he made a horrible manager.
