      Pros

      If you are early in your career, you will get great training. If you demonstrate capabilities, there are good advancement opportunities early in a career.

      Cons

      A very strong gravity to pull everybody to one like mind kills creativity and initiative. The company is quite political. Try as they might, they have never understood customers. If you are a truly outstanding high achieving salesperson, you will never be compensated nor have the opportunities here that you will get elsewhere. Run dont walk if you are that person.

      Impossible for new employees to succeed due to good old buddy system.

      Pros

      One can go for a long time with doing little to nothing and still be able to keep the job or even change jobs within the company. Work & Life balance is really respected. Most of the people, 90% of the work-force is out of the parking lot by 4:50pm.

      Cons

      Communication with employees and supervisors is unprofessional and futile since most of the time job duties are unclear. As a result, one finds it hard to keep oneself motivated and arguments are rampant. Year-end reviews don't mean anything for the employee's professional growth and career. Old buddy system is at work all the time.
