Pros

The company is full of over achievers and highly talented people. When the teams are focused, great things can happen. Rain Bird's salalries are fair. The products have excellent quality and the brand is very well known and respected. My direct Manager is excellent. The collective IQ of the individuals of the company is very high. You are given the tools to do your job and Rain Bird stands behind their products.

Cons

Lack of a leadership plagues the corporation. Too many directions and too many priorities. One firedrill after another. Many of the policies and programs are very outdated. Lack of a CRM tool, a knowledge management program and an insane travel policy are a few examples. More time at Rain Bird is spent managing your career than managing the customer. The employee ranking and management program is outdated, counter productive and not factual based.

Pros

Lots of freedom and independence, not much micro management, can come up with cool ideas.

Cons

Hard to advance, people stay in their spots for a long time, remote employees excluded from advancement in general. Benefits are bad, health care terrible. 401k match is weak
