Not a well led company

Pros

Good quality building products, but you pay a premium for them.

Cons

For the record, this company has gone through three Area Sales Managers in the last four years in my area of the mid-west. I was let go (with no reason given) back during the housing downturn even though my sales were increasing compared to the rest of the region. The real funny thing is, I still run into roofing distributors and contractors in this area who comment "you were the best rep we've ever had," or "they made a big time mistake when they let you go." This is a very weak company with spineless leadership at all levels that do not value their people. I'm sure the good 'ol boy system is still dead and well at this place. This company will never be able to get away from the charade of their own arrogance. If your looking to join up with a progressive company that is going places..my advice is to keep looking.. They do exist out there...but not at this place. Happy to say I'm striving in a sales position with a top notch Fortune 100 Company today that values their employees, and places emphasis on a positive productive culture.

Pros

I think the Owens Corning Basement Finishing System division is a great place to work! I believe Owens Corning is pretty good with work-life balance.

Cons

Working in a small group such as the Basement Finishing System division, we are always up to our eyeballs with work
