Pros

Outside of the car; there are no pros I can think of.

Cons

Everyone I know is actively looking or leaving this sinking ship. They speak of higher profitablity; but continue to cut the work force. Not realizing that the true work is done at the store level with TM. There is not one TM in the country that is happy with this company. They have retired the old leadership that made this job fun and interesting; they treated us like we actually mattered. It's a bad marriage and it needs to end. The entire management team and duck a sick ( exchange the d and s). As soon as my ship arrives I will leave this ship hole and never look back. Cons leadership, work life balance (vacation days you can't really us) too much new product and no place to put it and unreasonable request.

Pros

401k, Good deal of vacation time.

Cons

I truly miss working for RJReynolds! Even though its a very large company it still had that small close knit company feel. Now that BAT has taken over it is absolutely MISERABLE working here now. The plant has not shut down on a weekend since they took over and doesn't look like it will anymore as long as BAT is in control. All this company cares about is production and getting tobacco out the door. Employees get promoted to positions they no experience in and have no business at all in working in the positions. The moral is the worst I have ever seen it, you can look at coworkers faces and tell they aren't happy working here anymore. The production employees are miserable due to this plant never shutting down and always running. Work/life balance is very bad. BAT has zero care for American holidays, they wont think twice to "voluntell" employees they need to work on the holiday. Employees are scared to speak up and say anything. Management is all yes people and will not stand up for their employees. I have watched everything get progressively worse and worse as BAT continues running this company. This used to be a company that people enjoyed working until retirement and now its a company that works the employees into the ground.
