Pros

No Pros. Minimum pay for the amount of work you are required.

Cons

No job security, toxic work place, unprofessional upper management, high turnover and no diversity. The company constantly changes the KPI and the KPI have so many glitches. The numbers aren’t accurate and when you address management about the mistakes they have no answers. Upper management constantly uses profanity. All the upper management are close friends or work at a prior company together and just hire their friends or family members. That’s why they act so unprofessional and just layoff all the new talent. They create a very toxic environment by making every manager blame each other if anything goes wrong. The HR department is horrible. If you were treated wrongly or disrespected they don’t help and they take weeks just to reply. Upper management also talks down on HR as well. The sale team is treated very badly and the sale managers are constantly cursing them out and making employees cry or quit. I never worked for a company that had this type of environment. It’s shocking how a fortune 400 company can be this toxic and mistreating to employees. All the workers, working in the office are overwhelmed and are usually breaking down and crying to their managers about how upper management is making do too much work. There is no career advancement unless you are friends with upper management. If you’re a manager they want you to work for 12 hrs a day. You barley have time to take a lunch break.

Pros

Once upon a time, I enjoyed it.

Cons

New CEO took over. He’s pretty out of touch. My former colleagues call me and ask me return on a weekly basis still because it’s going poorly for them. They constantly make business decisions that counter organic growth. Probably because the motivator is not organic growth. Sales are treated like call center employees and there’s a ton of hate from the WS/ MM merger that wasn’t dealt with. It is definitely an ivory tower. You’re inside of it or you are not. If you’re liked, you can do whatever you want. As long as it looks like you’re committed to the group. This means that you can’t share a dissenting opinion though. Two of the worst three managers I have ever seen were there. They target individuals who don’t go be them the metrics they want in safety or performance. HR’s goal is to protect the company. Share nothing with them, ever.
