Business Outlook

Pros

A CSR at Quad/Graphics wears many hats liaising between the customer and all production departments relevant to completing the job.

Cons

There is a general lack of disclosure on the profitability of particular elements of jobs which lends to an overall lack of transparency.

Business Outlook

Pros

While the on-site health care benefits are nice, the "quality of care" is lacking as the company privately funds their health care options. They strongly promote "preventive care"...which is something we all should do.

Cons

This is for Quad Data Solutions unit---Pay is well-below market for job duties. Have to work a full year to earn 5 days vacation. Managers aren't knowledgeable of basic database marketing concepts and strategies. They also undermine your work so they can look good for their boss. VERY SLOW integration of software tools. Turnover is continuous, of both employees and clients. Don't feel there is any opportunity for advancement if you haven't been there for 15 plus years. VERY HIGH uncertainty avoidance to new ideas.
