Pros

Competitive pay. That's where it ends.

Cons

The leadership above regional tend to be Ivory Tower Ivy League elites. Be prepared to be undermined and blind-sided by poor adversarial distributor decisions, #weknowbetterthanu approach to market product needs, customer relationships and lack of non-symbolic employee relations. There's a reason Rain Bird has some of the highest turnover (2 and through). Degrees are more important than industry knowledge/experience and bad leaders are promoted rather than replaced.

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
