Pros

You'll have fun if you enjoy watching people being miserable. I used to enjoy working here. However, after 6 years of being here, I can't think of a single reason to work here aside from a desperate need for a paycheck.

Cons

Upper management is horrible, lacks talent and has no clue what is going on. This is not a place for young talented people. I have been told it was once a great place to work from some old timers. To bad I missed the gold old days. Very difficult to get promoted. They push you to meet your sales quota everyday. Limited training. Poor management. Low Salary. Hard to meet sales goals. lack of team spirits. Unprofessional colleagues. Very conservative business strategies. They run a very tight ship. that means they do more with less and specifically means that even during busy times, they are cautious to hire and branches are short staffed. Also means that there is a high amount of focus on expenses to include salary expenses. Have been trying to get in the back office for years but no luck. I am at a dead end. I have few contacts here and that is what you need to advance.

Pros

Great people to work with.

Cons

No growth opportunities. Contribute to the Growth of the company and take on more work and management doesn’t promote.
