Pros

I cannot think of any pros at the moment.

Cons

After working there for 21 years, I can't think of any pros from the time they RIF'd me. They had been a great company for years and years and have become what a buddy from Ryerson called "the laughing stock of the steel industry". Their only hope is to go back to pre 2009 and do what they use to do when they gave a crap about their employees.

Pros

I was at O'neal for decades. It was a very good job with great benefits. The company showed it's appreciation for it's employees in many ways.

Cons

When Emmet O'neal passed away the company culture decidedly changed for the worse. Current upper management does not seem to care about it's employees or customers. I was actually told by a member of senior management "If people want to buy from us, they'll do it on our terms." Judging by their current sales, many people no longer wish to buy from them. They have been forced to close many districts in recent years.

Pros

Strong history. Great employees who strive to work as a team - many who have been with O'Neal for over 20 years.

Cons

Lost family touch - poor leadership - reactionary. Seem to not leverage strengths when competing with much smaller competitors. The top folks look out for themselves.
