Pros

If you need experience doing a job, its here. Benefits, to working here - well.....

Cons

No training, no job path, no help from HQ. Management cages talented people to make themselves look great and smother them. Bait and switch to keep workers down. No reason to come here unless you are a sadist. You could fit right in.

Pros

Company benefits with 5% 401k match, Health insurance was ok, the actual day to day job was good.

Cons

Corporate bureaucracy slowing the whole process of selling. Institutional style sales programs that did not appeal to the customers, resulting in inability to connect with the customer's needs. Middle management had no people skills and were lacking in communication skills, and capabilities to perform their postions effectively.

Pros

People who work there are nice and hard working people.

Cons

Management lies to employees. Managers refer to employees as people they own. Often overheard managers saying "who owns this one" Male dominated environment, in order for women to advance they have to be flirty, wear short skirts and kiss the man's butt, very antiquated state of mind. Must be liked by the "Upper Management In Crowd", otherwise there is no room for advancement. You may be a great employee work-wise, but if one of them doesn't like your personality then forget about it.
