Pros

The compensation is good for the industry. However expect a 60-70 hour work week. Including all weekends and holidays. Do not expect any monetary rewards or comp time.

Cons

1. Unreasonable workloads. 2. Unreasonable time frames for completion of reports, surveys and analysis of reports. 3 Unreasonable travel requirements. 4. Employees have to pay for all travel expenses and wait weeks for reimbursment. 5. Unrealistic meal allowance when traveling ($40.00 a day max.) 6. No recognition for doing exemplary work and exceeding expectations. Only criticism if you miss something minor. 7. There is no comp time ever in this organization. 8. You must be able to carry thousands of dollars on your personal credit cards to work at this company -while waiting for reimbursments. 9. The turnover of employees at this company is huge. 10. DM's are so low valued that they pay a $5k bonus to anyone who recruites a friend that lasts 60 days. If you don't like someone- recommend them for this job. Even in this time of high unemployment. Just read between the lines. 11. Employees are paid on a base salary + Bonus -Beware - They fire huge groups of employees just prior to reaching the pay out date annually.

Pros

I like my boss, and some co-workers, who are great people to work for. We all help each other out, when needed, which is great.

Cons

There are some co-workers who are just "warm bodies" and I think it's sad that they are still around, when there are hard working and honest people out there that need a job, and who would do their job.
