Pros

The employees want to give their all and have the company succeed.

Cons

Leadership only pays lip service to issues and isn't knowledgeable about payroll so they come up with ideas that aren't legal then make staff prove that they are wrong. Once proven, no apology or acknowledgement, just move on to the next hairbrained idea. Time wasted working on research that doesn't go anywhere and trying to educate leaders. Even when talking with senior leadership, they are more focused on someone who has experience with leadership than someone who understands the division they are overseeing. When working 12-14 hour days for weeks at year end, instead of staffing or helping, they just suggested working additional hours.

Pros

We used to have to come in every morning and stay in the office for at least an hour, then go out into the field, come back at least an hour before 5pm and stay in the office. They changed it so we only have to come in in the morning and it's so much nicer.

Cons

I really didn't get along with the sales manager. On my first day, the manager who hired me announced he was leaving. About two weeks into my employment, the new sales manager wanted to make crazy changes to show his authority. It went downhill from there. He made major cutbacks and the things he kept where supposed to be thought of as gifts, such as bottled water.
