Legal Sweatshop!

Pros

If you have a degree you'll move up fast because of the turnover rate. However, most managers either leave due to the hours or are let go because one thing goes wrong.

Cons

Just about everything. You will work a minimum of 60 hours a week but since you are salary don't expect to see any overtime. You don't get vacation for a year and you can't take that vacation from May-September. You don't get paid holidays but rather have to work the Saturday before. I was able to get better and cheaper insurance than what PMA offered through a private provider. You will get told to change directions so many times you'll feel like you're running in a circle. Upper management in Marion worries about the small stuff and has no idea how things run at the depot level. Absolutely terrible place to work. It is nothing but a legal sweatshop where they will expect long hours and will fire good employees and people for the smallest of reasons. If you have a family or activities that you enjoy after hours kiss it all goodbye. None of the jobs are that hard except you are constantly worried about your job.

Pros

Great brands and nothing else.

Cons

Private ownership. Owner and son, (Chairman and President) live in a bubble with no concept of reality on the street. Turnover is astronomical though ownership thinks it is in line. They have no concept of what is "normal" for a company their size. Chairman micro-manages everything nuance of the business never allowing his manager to participate in critical thinking. As an employee, having family is a negative as it is a distraction to working 20+ hours a day. If a family emergency should arise you may find yourself unemployed. Sales and operations do not get paid holidays off but rather have to make up a holiday on the next weekend.
