Pros

Training program will teach you a lot about the industry. Good benefits. You'll lose weight working in the warehouse or on the counter!

Cons

Long hours 60+ a week. The company expects you to move all over the place just to get promotions. Lazy, constantly changing management. Outside sales reps and branch managers reap the benefits of everyone hard work, and just point fingers and pass the blame. Branches are under staffed. Massive international company, your just a number, or a scapegoat.

Pros

Well the benefits are fairly good. The health care coverage used to be awesome. The price has gone way up and the co-pays as well over the last few years. Paid leave is pretty good. I'm getting 3 floating holidays, 3 personal days, 5 sick days and 3-1/2 weeks of paid vacation plus the normal 6 holidays. I've been subjected to several different managers. Some of them were awesome - some of them were devils with horns. Luck of the draw I guess depending on what branch you work in.

Cons

Not exactly ideal work conditions. You are high pressured and the environment can get pretty bad with sour attitudes and finger pointing. I could deal with that if the pay were better. I like the benefits which is what keeps me there, for now. The pay scale is on the lower end and pay raises are dependent on who you know. I consider a .15 cents per hour raise an insult, more like a slap in the face.

Pros

Decent place to work. Good values and good culture with other employees. Decent job security.

Cons

Difficult to advance. Especially difficult to get worthwhile raises. 3% on 30k doesn't compound very quickly year over year......
