Pros

Wonderful tech support engineers, decent health care, long term insurance, vacation, great coworkers, home office, great customers, plenty of travel, fair branch manager. Actually, I love my job, it is interesting and very satisfying.

Cons

No raise in 7 years, make 20% less than 10 years ago. Poor 401K match. Old outdated employee laptops. Complete lack of training on new products or software releases. BBNS unintegrated entities competing against us for opportunities, but our labor rates not even remotely competitive with other independent or BBNS entities. No local or statewide advertising of our branch, although unintegrated BBNS advertise. Lousy car allowance with Runzheimer, I'm actually subsidizing my work travel. Unable to carry over any vacation.

Pros

A great regional Manager, Great employees to work with

Cons

No raises, They work salary employees extreem hours. Good ole boy network. no advancments. just alot of empty promises. Customer Service is not important, only the " Bottom Line" You can be replaced is often said. Too many hands in the pot at once with national customers. everyone wants to rule the kingdom. I could go on, but I think you get the point.

Pros

Unless you are desperate for a paycheck pass on this one

Cons

Very poor work environment. Nobody is happy, managers are micro-managing and care more about the exact hours you put in opposed to the work you get done. No flexibility for an employee with kids (sick kids/daycare pickup). It's a tense place to be and management doesn't care about your future or helping you succeed.
