Pros

none... you may think there are when they offer you job but beware, company does not deliver on many promises. If your reading this you are wondering what the company is like- DO NOT TAKE A JOB WITH THIS COMPANY. You can be the best employee but they will lie to you. They do not value any employees!!!! The company has changed dramatically in the last few years. The people capable of doing a good job are leaving and the company does not care!

Cons

everything about company if you consider a job with them ask to meet with several staff people doing the hands on work and ask them your own questions. Ask around and find past employees --- there will be many and get the real truth about the company. The positive reviews on this site are probably written by upper management to try to provide some positive reviews. They are probably not from any actual employees ! they are probably getting ready to sell the company again.

Pros

Good employees. Standard benefits package. No cap on commissions. Occasional catered meals.

Cons

Unfortunately, as with any large publicly traded company the goal is to keep investors pleased and there is high pressure to perform and grow business in an economic climate where stability is more realistic than growth. The company is structured by different branches, that function as their own cost center while reporting numbers to corporate. This structure makes sense on paper, but unfortunately leads to fractured relationships between branches and departments, leading to a loss of potential revenue. There is favoritism with the top earners being handed their accounts and not having to do much actual hunting or prospecting. Health insurance is very expensive with high deductibles. Usage of company car is deducted from paycheck. A large majority of what is performed could be considered "field work" that most companies would hire hourly employees to do and would qualify as overtime.
