Overall a horrible place to work

Pros

There really aren't any, unless you consider a paycheck a pro.

Cons

- No vacation during 1st year of employment. - Cannot contribute to 401K during 1st year of employment. - Most everyone that works here is miserable, so it makes for a toxic work environment. - Vice President opens everyone's mail. You would think a VP of a company would have better things to do, but apparently not here. - To get days such as Christmas Eve off, you need to reach crazy sales goals. So you go the entire month of December not knowing if you will have Christmas Eve or New Year's Eve off. When you do reach the goal the owner has no issue telling the employees "how much money it costs him" to give you these days off with pay. - Management treats employees poorly, it is a very "Us vs. Them" type of environment. I would not recommend working here. It is a waste of your career to go your first year without being able to contribute to your retirement. Management treats employees like children. There really is nothing good to be said about this company.

Pros

it provided a paycheck. that is all. the other reviews were spot on about this place.

Cons

- terrible communication from mangement / owner - the two main types of people that work here are those that kiss butt, yes men to the owner. and those that are unambitious. have no hopes or dreams, and are content in this dead end company - you will get promised things that never come to fruition - benefits are a joke.

Pros

- Excellent and knowledgable coworkers (for the most part)

Cons

- Lack of direction for the company, coming from the top down - Too much focus on "more product", no solutions for selling existing product lines - Inexperienced individuals being "hand picked" for directorships - No internal promotion or movement (unless someone leaves/is fired) - Refusal to "trim the fat" (Terminations are near unheard of) - No raises, no bonuses - Yearly health insurance increases (the whole increase passed to employee)
