Pros

Better than digging ditches, maybe.

Cons

You could have listed some "cons" before William Jones sold the company to CPI and purposely waited to tell employees until New Year's Eve. Thanks, Bill. Enjoy your Bentley. However, those concerns are nothing compared to the post-CPI world. Crane bought Cummins-Allison just to get their sales and service team, since they were used to being an OEM supplier and never before had a product to sell directly to end users. Once they developed such a product called Paypod, they failed miserably at selling it and though they could improve things a bit by buying Cummins-Allison and their sales and service teams. Layoffs after acquisition, and more rounds of layoffs due to COVID. The worst thing about CPI is their culture. They chant their founder's words like a cult before every company-wide meeting, but don't practice what they preach. No transitioning CA employee that talked to an existing CPI employee after the acquisition had anything nice to say about upper management or the culture at CPI. It's very much a thankless job environment where the key message is, "what have you done for me today". Avoid this company like the plague. You have been warned.

Pros

Vehicle and gas are perks, ok salary, but not awesome.

Cons

Slowly micromanaging us to death. They invent new ways to deny us a bonus every few months. Individual pay raises are not really based on performance as they claim. I’m not sure upper management even understands what we do, as very little of their directives make sense in practicality. The words they say in meetings cannot be trusted. To borrow an old saying: “They will pee on your leg and tell you it’s raining.” Local Branch Managers are afraid to say anything negative. District Managers are inept, at best. Regional Managers only care about control. Don’t you dare point out problems or you’ll be a problem yourself. Toxic culture of obedience by fear and retribution.
