Pros

Employee owned, so the stock purchasing plan is plus for retirement

Cons

No remote options. Toxic work environment Management is oblivious to employee needs/requests Little to no training available (sink or swim) Old school mentality, not a progressive company Compensation is minimum, and raises usually range around 1% annually You will very much be treated like a number in this role. There is no personal connection between you and the workplace even though they boast "employee owned" "Employee owned" but get ready to get scolded from a pre-recorded meeting with the president if the numbers are low.

Cons

Uncaring Management, Errogance at All Levels of Management, Unappreciative Management, Cockey CEO, Current management team Leading a sales organization yet most have no real sales experience. Most managers always assume they are the smartest person in the room no matter what the level of experience is of their employees.
