Pros

Not a bad company to work for overall. The pay is only good for the executive management and top people. Good communication and help from HQ is Franklin TN whenever there is a problem.

Cons

Pay scale for regular employees who are hourly is a joke. Unless you are salaried or a big wig do not expect to make much money or get a big raise after evaluation. Never have I worked for such a stingy company. The people who work to make the company successful seem to get the short end of the stick while the ones who "manage" are highly overpaid and lacking the leadership or knowledge on how to treat employees. Leadership also needs to stop badgering salespeople to sell sell sell. So many talented salespeople have quit due to the way they were basically harassed by their leaders. Allow the sales force to ease into sales, learn along the way and build their customer database.
