Pros

Lower level employees are friendly, dedicated hard working people who care about the future of the company. They have a passion for doing their jobs well and taking care of their customers.

Cons

No respect at all from mid/upper management. Constantly "eliminating positions due to budget cuts" and the hiring new employees within weeks for the same position. Can be a very demeaning environment. Management causes very low moral among employees. Absolutely no loyalty to lower level employees. HR in Colorado does very little when situations arise.

Business Outlook

Pros

Job stability, but not anymore now that layoffs are part of their culture. Brands still have a good name if a turn around can start right away. No more time to waste though.

Cons

Management has no vision of the future. They spend weeks making power points for their German parent and do nothing to improve the situation. Current management took a once great and profitable company and turned it into a snoozer. Hopefully Germany figures out that the CEO and CFO have to go if they ever want to achieve their goals. The only people who love this company are their competitors in Minnesota.
