Pros

They have very good benefits for both traditional and non-traditional families. Excellent advancement opportunities for those who can talk the talk without necessarily walking the walk.

Cons

To many people kissing their way up the ladder. Management could care a less about a quality program and the people they use to walk up the ladder.

Business Outlook

Pros

Company Name looks good on a resume. The company's new strategy of reducing SG&A is resulting in improved OI performance. Stock Price is up

Cons

Very poor track record on organic growth. Innovation used to be an important part of the business, but now it is cut immediately when OI boosts are needed. It is an increasingly unfriendly place to work. Most incentives to retain middle managers have been eliminated.

Pros

Great Benefits except for no stock options. Great sales force and customer service reps.

Cons

Corporate Paslode upper management has no respect for sales force. They are very disconnected from customers and market. Completely priced out of the market, but yet still ask why we are losing market share. Really?? When prices are double the competition to the end user it makes it very difficult and very frustrating!!! Upper Management very degrading and unmotivating toward sales force
