Pros

Reynolds does have a fairly nice office/campus, and some nice amenities. But doesn't make up for everything else.

Cons

Terrible business practices overall. * Claim they care about employees, but - no HR department!! Bob Brockman thinks he knows more than anyone else and can avoid the hassle of doing things the right way. * Terrible benefits for a company this size, especially compared to other companies * Nowhere near current market pay. * No internal posting of jobs - they just select who they want and promote, * Very "white male" driven company with some very outdated values. * Have a nice cafeteria, but "force" you to eat anything you get IN the cafeteria. Can't buy and take with you! * Absolutely no idea of how the company is actually doing. Very top secret. They "say" everything going great, and company is a cash cow. But never actually share any financial info, etc... I don't believe any managers even have a budget or P&L to track to. Insist on "building it themselves" instead of utilizing software or product already tried and proven. They think they save money by doing this, but actually lose out on a lot of product capabilities and usefulness, I got a new job (similar to what I was doing at Reynolds) and literally almost doubled my salary, more than doubled my vacation (without even having to negotiate it!), have an actual choice of much better health care plans, and am able to apply to open positions to advance within the company! What a concept!

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.
