Pros

Flexibility galore, hours are great, family oriented atmosphere, everyone works towards the same goal, happy employees, great company philosophy towards helping people

Cons

I was recruited away from a $150k per year job that the hours were killing me in. I was told I could make $80k + with company. NO BENEFITS, recruiters blow your head up about income earnings, I am setting records left and right and would be lucky to make $50k, that combined with no benefits is not very attractive to an accomplished sales person/manager like myself.

Pros

(At the time) Fair pay and predictable bonus structure They were pretty good at covering travel expenses and paying them back quickly Diverse workforce & diversity initiatives Fun and funny coworkers Opportunities for growth Again, this was all four years ago and has likely changed

Cons

(At the time and now, according to other comments) Arrogant to a fault Total lack of innovation & willingness to innovate Odd attachment to the company's past (which prevents progress) High number of veterans (20+ years) who are determined to get that retirement money, and therefore, are resistant to change and technology Heavy reliance on command and control management style Poor decision-making that leads to losses of all kinds
