Pros

Work / life balance got better with change from salaried to hourly paid employment for field reps. Company vehicle that can be used for personal use. Stock purchase program.

Cons

Very unrealistic expectations with change to hourly pay to get everything done the right way without going into overtime. Too many reps forced to cut too many corners. Mid and Upper Management will not listen to realistic business advice from the reps in the field who are closest to the reality of the marketplace: Ivory tower managers who think their ideas are always right.

Pros

The pros are four day work week 10 hour days, with many Fridays volunteer overtime They try to make a friendly environment

Cons

The pay is not as good as the other places around the area – odd for a fortune 200 company Daily quotas on work – some of them are unrealistic Many department supervisors – a.k.a. “coaches “ are pretty good – one or two are not. Typically these are the ones that have been there for 25 years plus. 20 minute break in the morning, 20 minute break for lunch 10 minute break in the afternoon You are truly on your feet for majority of the 10 hour day The corporation tries to make a friendly environment, but very few employees involve themselves in it. Much backstabbing among line workforce, not a healthy environment. Line workforce runs to supervisors constantly about other people when they should be concerned about their own work. Management has their favorites and you could see that by who who they talk to, and who Brown noses them
