Cons
The current leadership in the Northeast area is terrible. They look for constant scapegoats and go against the company culture of coaching and mentoring by using negative reinforcement. No matter what you do and how well you do it, you will never get a thank you but rather what can you do for me now? If you have an issue do not go to HR, they will sweep it under the rug and protect their friends that are in the "club". I had a major issue arise against someone in the "club" and went through every avenue that was provided and suggested by the company (i.e. upper management, filing a report, etc). I was told to "forget about company policy." If you are not in the "club" you will have a sense of constant unwelcomeness.If you have a voice, don't bother using it because it will get you pushed out. The pay and company car may sound good when you move up but the amount of hours you put in is uncharacteristic compared to many other companies (i.e. on call 24/7, working 7 days a week, etc). If you miss a call because you have a life outside of work when you get the chance, you will get yelled at. You will get on average 100-125 emails a day. Bonus structure is very slow (annual) and archaic.
