Pros

Good pay and good benefits.

Cons

This company is lacking in training, lacking in communication from top down, and lacking in collaboration. This company operates like it is 20+ years ago. Not great at change.

Pros

Nice office environment, ok culture. Great people. Tons of work to keep everyone busy.

Cons

Lack of diversity. Lack of career development. No training to speak of. Building industry is cyclical, so extreme good times/bad times pretty much all the time. Manufacturing environment, so stressful at times even far away from mills and warehouses. Culture rapidly changing since HQ moved to Nashville. New IT systems poses the usual challenges (eg. outsourcing).

Pros

Ability to learn many skills, lots of cross-training opportunities.

Cons

Long wait as "temporary employee" (frequently seven months+) with no insurance or other benefits. Management frequently shows favoritism toward friends and family in promotions/switching jobs.
