Great company to own stock in but not to work for.

Business Outlook

Pros

RRD is stable and cares mostly about the bottom line. They have been around for 150 years and are evolving from a straight printing company to a solutions company with print being the major role.

Cons

The message that seems to come from above is "be happy you have a job". Every year I've been there they have taken away benefits. They took away the 401k match after offering it just 1 year. There is no additional vacation time recognizing years of service. There is no training budget or career investment. Health benefits carry a huge deductible. There are no merit salary increases so there is no motivation to do more or improve. It's an extremely de-motivating place to work.

Pros

Not many pros left in working for this company.

Cons

No 401k or pension. Pay for almost all benefits. Long hours with lots of forced overtime. Executives make cuts, get the bonuses while sticking it to the employees. Training a joke, new hires don't stay long and long time employees leaving fast.

Pros

the people originally hired by Banta are friendly and outgoing, wonderful to work with.

Cons

Pay is mediocre at best, impoverishing at worst. Instead of focusing on the plants they do have, they keep acquiring other businesses, and then tell the employees we have no money for things like pay increases to keep with inflation, or bonuses that used to be in excess of 1000/month, and are now lucky to be 100.00 after paying for insurance/taxes. They are progressively discharging anyone who is close to retirement, or earns anywhere close to what they should be for the stressors involved, and it feels excessively like they are purposefully attempting to sink this ship- we had a sudden increase in business and now we have nobody to fulfill the positions required to complete it at 100% quality.
