Pros

Known company to put on a resume. Former co-workers were hard working and we had to work under some very stressful conditions to get the orders out.

Cons

Company is in a freefall. MDP buyout has destroyed morale for sales, operations and warehouse employees due to executive greed. This company is a prime candidate for the card check legislation pending and desperately needs to unionize. The turnover rate for employees was astronomical. Wages remained stagnent. You had to work for nintey days before your benefits kicked in, so you had to hope and pray that you or your family did not get sick or have a medical emergency in the mean time. Other large companies offer benefits from day one!

Pros

Good Place to start out. Co-workers are great

Cons

Employee morale seems to be at a very low point, more tenured Account Managers are losing large portions of their books to younger people. Company has a churn and burn mentality so large turnover rate makes customers upset when they are getting new account managers all the time.

Pros

Socially a great company that treats you fairly for the most part... however, middle management are completely unqualified drones who will not think outside the box and are more than happy to collect their paychecks. If you are really good at kissing up to these people you will be taken care of... so if you know this going in and want to play this game... then it is a good place to be.

Cons

In a bad market... this would be very tough to start right now.
