Pros

Trying to grow in a dynamic industry.

Cons

Lack of financial acumen among senior leadership, especially little knowledge regarding variables that drive shareholder value. This results in poor capital allocation, strategic plans and product portfolio decisions. Key financial information is not shared below the executive level, resulting in little team alignment around key performance metrics and drivers. Given the above, the company feels like a slow-moving train-wreck, with little accountability among leadership provided by the BOD.

Pros

Great product, hours were good, and good culture overall. I worked there for well over 10 years and was very sad to leave.

Cons

The Birmingham branch went through several owners during my long tenure with the company. Each owner had its pros and cons. Eventually Birmingham was bought out by the corporate office. The company constantly changing owners gave alot of anxiety and employees were often left feeling a lack of stability. There is not alot of room for growth and the starting pay is not the best, unless you are in Trade sales.
