      Pros

      Salary is median for stress level and time commitment. Major gap between middle management and senior executive group. Doing more with less people and not replacing those who left is taking it's toll on everyone. No pros at this organization. Ask anyone in the production or middle management levels.

      Cons

      Top Management is very condescending and they bully middle management. Expect long hours during the week and time in on the weekends. Targets are always stretch goals with no in-between. All blame is on the middle management group no matter the efforts.

      The 'Carpenter' that once was, is no more.

      Pros

      Good company name to put on a resume.

      Cons

      Management sells their employees on 'free dreams' (an actual term they use behind closed doors). They sell you on the promise of a better work life, better pay and better opportunities, knowing full-well they have no intention of doing so. Imagine running on a treadmill with a carrot dangling 5 ft in front of the machine, you can run as fast as you like, you're not catching that carrot. Customer service reps are taught to not ask questions and follow blindly, the term 'drinking the kool aid' is fitting for this environment. To management, we're all just a number. My experience is just one of many from customer service.

      Pros

      Good company name to work for and good pay.

      Cons

      Catty and inappropriate gossip between managers. Managers constantly talking down and behind other employees backs.
