Pros

Great health insurance offered to their employees.

Cons

Employees are constantly told/made to feel like they are never good enough as a motivational tactic, as well as, dangling the idea that you could lose your job at any moment. Management leads through fear and intimidation. Upper management speaks poorly (makes fun of them) about the line employees behind their backs.

Pros

-Great benefits. -Profit Sharing -Competitive Pay (For the Area) -Vacation Time After 6 Months

Cons

Where do I start? Management always speaks down to you in a condescending tone. If you're not hitting your "numbers" they will hold your job over your head as a scare tactic. Their coaching always outweighs any praise of your accolades. You're only an employee number to them at the end of the day. I've had a supervisor call me his subordinate. I've also been told that I was only getting paid to talk (although I've made the company thousands of dollars). The atmosphere is a pressure cooker. No wonder the average career for associates are 1.5 years. The only thing that matters to upper management is the bottom line... How much money the company is making & how little they can pay their employees. Whenever you voice your opinion you're look at as having a bad attitude/creating a bad work environment. "This is the way it is-If you don't like it work somewhere else." No wonder associates choose employment elsewhere for less compensation. It's not worth the stress. If I knew what I was getting into, I would of never signed up.
