Pros

There are some great programs offered at Reynolds: Sports Leagues Frequent Social Activities Trips Cafeteria Gym

Cons

Too many to list without boring you to death. 1. INSANE levels of micromanagement and tracking. (Had to have a serious conversation about frequency of bathroom trips due to the tracking of door access cards needed to gain entry to restroom areas) (Was asked why I leave at 5:00PM every day and not 5:15PM. Was told "Management stays until 5:15PM") 2. Nepotism was the rule and not the exception, with shameful levels of hypocrisy. 3. Pay was 25%-35% below industry standard across the board. If a Recruiter can look you in the eye and tell you that Reynolds offers competitive salaries, please make sure that they are speaking about your specific position. They are "competitive" only when compared to unemployment or entry level fast food positions. 4. Idiotic policies that are not explained and any legitimate questioning will land you in "career limbo" until you leave. (Best example is the fact that Reynolds use to pay an outside company, which was owned by a friend of upper management, to come in and polish the floors overnight. That doesn't sound too crazy right? Well the company was, literally, caught stealing red-handed and had to return monitors, cameras, hard drives, etc. Did Reynolds discontinue using the company? Negative, their solution was to pick a few random managers and supervisors to stay overnight to walk behind the workers while they cleaned. I also failed to mention that Reynolds has a full time janitorial crew and that the outside company had to use the Reynold's Janitorial equipment to clean the floor, as they did not have the proper equipment. My question: "Why not just have the janitorial crew polish the floors, do away with paying an outside company that was caught stealing, and do away with having multiple salaried employees have to spend the night to watch out for thievery? I was told "You go tell X that his friend's company lost a contract with Reynolds.)

Pros

Free lunch, the other technical writers are nice to work with. Company benefits have improved in recent years.

Cons

Incompetent DOC Management will drive even the nicest writers away from the company. If you work as a technical writer, you will be underpaid, overworked, and micromanaged. The people in the DOC department are treated differently from others in the company solely because of DOC management rules. For example, supervisors will go through your desk and drawers each week as part of cube inspections, and there are strict rules about what you can and can't have in or on your desks. Because other departments do not do this, the DOC department looks much more sad and gray than the rest of the company. Your badge tracks you at all times throughout the building. If you go to an area of the building that you don't work in, there are good odds management will ask you about that. Management does not care about the tech writers. It's turned even the nicest and most positive people negative towards the department. There are nearly zero writers who have been there longer than 1 year that are positive towards the department. Turnover in the department is crazy. Someone leaves on average every 2 months, so nearly the entire department is different in just 2 or 3 years. Even though the cafeteria is free, the food can be hit or miss.
