Pros

I am greatly impressed with the new CEO and I think she is going to be a breath of fresh air. Chamberlain is the leader in the industry and the products are being designed with cutting edge technology which is very exciting to be a part of. We are moving to a state of the art building in Oakbrook and we are extremely excited about the change in location just about five miles away. The new facility will be geared towards greater productivity, will give us more meeting space, and with the company's focus on employee wellness, exciting work out and wellness areas.

Cons

The current building is very dated and the majority of the work spaces have access to only fluorescent lighting. When we move to the new building the environment will be vastly improved. I think any other cons I could think of would be the same things you would like to have at any job -- higher pay, more vacation etc...

Pros

Market and industry leaders which causes a puppet master mentality. Good health benefits. Work culture is cubicle life where you come to work, clock in 8 hour day, then go home.

Cons

Very "cushy" company. Information is transitioning from tribal ways of being passed down from start of company to having it backed up on software which is a new process so it imposes a challenge in itself. The industry is completely dominated by Chamberlin and LiftMaster so no competition to impose challenges. A lot of the challenges are internal obstacles. Be aware of what job description states, will find a lot of extra steps and mundane tasks to achieve a simple result that will need approvals by everyone along the way. Will hear "its the way we always done it" a lot. Printed materials consistently have errors, mistakes, and misprints. This literature is then shared with all of the customers and internal organization. A lot of internal fires being put out which causes the customers to be delayed. A lot of what is said and what actually is done tells two separate stories. Noticed a lot of finger pointing, and leadership never taking ownership of actions. For being a strong leader in the market and having the stature and prestige associated with the company the sustainability and environmental processes are poor and wasteful.
