Pros

If you are lucky there will be some opportunities for travel and you may get to participate in some interesting projects.

Cons

A2L management team has absolutely no idea what is going on with the program at any given time. If you are stuck with terrible direct managers at your location you are really out of luck for an entire year. Many superiors either have no idea what the purpose of the A2L program is or they just do not care. Your professional development will be put on a back burner. Within this program you will either be worked to death and thrown into huge situations way above your experience level OR be used for busy work and a fill in cashier. There is not a middle ground so neither option is ideal.

Pros

Travel opportunities. Former corporate management was extremely supportive and good to work with. Free food. Free drama.

Cons

Work life balance. Don’t be a mother to young children if you want to work here. Verbal communication vs. what you get in an email will be contradictory….the gaslighting was unbelievable. Digital metric systems put in place by new corporate management has taken all the creativity and actual management out of the job. Will be mad at you if you don’t make the numbers they want to see, but will provide zero guidance on how best to do so. Hours were extremely long in order to complete all job responsibilities. New upper management is inflexible to specific account needs. Each account is different. HR does not help you - they protect the company. If you need to terminate an employee - they make it impossible.
