Pros
- All corporate employees are forced to work antiquated set schedules (6:30-3:30, 7-4, 8-5) so you only work 40 hours a week - There are some very nice people that I crossed paths with during my time there
Cons
- No company culture. Everyone sits miserably in their cube for 9 hours a day with minimal interaction with one another. You literally could walk around the entire office and everyone would just be staring at their computer or in their office with the door closed. Honestly it was the most demotivating environment I've ever worked in. Everyone just runs out of the office at their end time of 3:30, 4, or 5. - No people strategy. There are limited growth opportunities / no visible succession planning. All promotions that I witnessed occurred on a reactive not proactive basis. - The pay and overall benefits is not competitive. Anyone could go to another company and get a 30% raise, easily. The 401k is a joke (25% of the first 3% is matched, what??) and the holiday schedule included 6 (!) paid holidays. No bonuses offered to corporate employees outside of sales or account management. Healthcare is expensive with high deductibles. - The leadership team does not have good judgement. Two examples come to mind: my direct boss gave notice and the head of my department started interviewing for her position. I was not included in the interview process in any way, when I would be working with this person on the most frequent basis. Another example of poor judgement was when one winter, there was a snow storm that was deemed a state of emergency. The office was not shut down and employees who wanted to work from home were told to contact the COO to work remotely. What kind of gross scare tactic is that? You should trust your employees to be able to do their work remotely for ONE DAY when it is dangerous for them to be commuting to the office. For a company that claims that safety is their # concern, it is laughable that they do not allow employees to work remotely in inclement weather conditions.
