Stay Away From Ewing

Pros

Pays decent and good benefits but do no expect anything else from ewing.

Cons

Prepare yourself for a corporate political nightmare to the likes youve never seen. Its the classic top knows and does everything the best and will not listen to the people on the bottom no matter the situation. The expected workload is ridiculous and unbalanced with half the employees actually working and the other half playing on their cell phones. expect to be used up and thrown away when they are done with you

You'd better be a member of the fraternity

Pros

They throw lots of money at you if they are trying to recruit you, and seem very welcoming.

Cons

When they get what they want from you, not so much. You'd better be a yes man and not make any waves or challenge the status quo no matter how stupid, counterproductive, or antiquated it may seem. Only management positions pay anything. Counter salespeople make very little for what is expected. Branch managers are responsible for EVERYTHING and must attend a ridiculous amount of meetings and participate in an equally ridiculous amount of promotions, merchandising "contests", etc. Not to mention the team building events. (laughable). Their biggest team building activity is to supply alcohol to everyone at the conventions. Whoopie. You can only move up if you are willing to relocate or travel extensively. Or are a big butt kisser. Take your pick.

Pros

To name some quick ones; 401k Match, Profit sharing, small gym, education reimbursement, certification reimbursement, excel training reimbursement (or free tutoring), one on one leadership training / mentorship (with management or company leadership guru), occasional lunch provided (month-end, birthdays, goals met), unlimited company provided coffee / tea (cream and sugar included), internal advancement, advancement, ADVANCEMENT (did I mention advancement), plenty of parking (none of that downtown parking garage mess, off-street parking fender benders or walking a mile in heels pain, you're pretty much parking at the front door), maximum exposure to lots of realms of the industry (if you're bored, that's on you, there is always something to do, something to learn, something to file or an open door to ask a manager how you can help or grow in your career). There are many more but it's easier if you just come and see for yourself. This is a job, not charity, so if you want to work for the sake of working and bettering yourself, then this is the place to be amongst like minded individuals. Standards are high and management wants people to meet expectations that can be utilized here or anywhere else you choose to be.

Cons

The only cons are there are some negative people who work here who know if they leave they will probably never be able to get another job (this is at EVERY JOB). They will try and get in your head but as long as you come to work and give your 100% and don't let other people affect you then you are good. Be better than those individuals. No one employed here at Ewing is being held against their will.
