      Pros

      Apparent good starting salary. I am a former employee who considered going back, more than once.

      Cons

      After a recent interview, I reached a few conclusions: The company is so hyper-focused on stats, surveys, and percentages, that you are and always will be, the sum total of your numbers. And nothing more-unfortunately. You will be treated as though you cannot be trusted, and will be pitted against your co-workers under the guise of stats and surveys. These numbers will be posted for all to see, just to be sure. People are unhealthy here. They eat to cope with the stress of the environment and it shows. I observed so many overweight people and they all looked sallow and unhappy.

      Pros

      Benefits, Vacation, Profit Sharing, tons of financial perks and kickers are available. Most of the employees, from the cleaning staff up to the Department Managers and CEO's are lovely people that are great to work with. The pay is great - for good reason (see below). Lots of shifts to choose from. Lots of different jobs within the company. They train you from the bottom up, and pay for your licensing and continued education which is nice.

      Cons

      Get ready to get burnt out - quickly. Working in the service department is extremely demanding and the highest stress job I've ever had. You must maintain core several metrics and phone calls you take (currently 14 per month), that are monitored on a daily monthly and yearly basis by your team, your immediate supervisor and your manager. On top of regular requirements, there are usually monthly contests or occasional projects you may be required to work on. One may feel that their entire day is under a microscope. There is never a break from the requirement of 'stats' or a chance to really enjoy the previous months accomplishments because it simply starts all over again. It is never ending. There are many more opportunities to move up and on to other jobs within the company but there is also a lot more competition, as a large company that employs so many people. Basically, the job is really really difficult, stressful and worrisome and they pay you for it. It's certainly not for everyone.

      Cold, uncaring, old-school corporate culture

      Pros

      Job security, growth and educational opportunities

      Cons

      Policies are archaic and management demonstrates no consideration for personal circumstances. You are treated as a number in this company, no better than cattle, no matter how important your position or job duties. Compensation is below average for industry. If you are sick even for a day, it will count against you. Absolutely no consideration for weather emergencies - they never close and if you can't get to work, it counts against you.
