Pros

If you have zero experience in the field you're looking at, they will hire you. That doesn't mean you're guaranteed any proper training - that is dependent entirely upon who your manager ends up being. But if you're looking to make a career change they can give you the requisite industry experience to get there.

Cons

The reason they'll hire people with no experience is because the entire business model is churn and burn - people, contracts, vendors, it doesn't matter. There's no effort to create a good working environment or a long-term culture because the entire organization is an extraction of wealth to management. The company is a giant grift. There's no long-term viable model, so they're pumping all the money out of it they can before they sell off all their assets and contracts and cash out. Management is terrible - but, again, the point is to keep the cash cow alive for as long as possible with as little investment as possible, not create a functional business. If you're there, you're there for immediate returns, not for a long time.

Pros

RR Donnelley is an amazing place to work. The organization allows you a lot of freedom, flexibility, and opportunity. My favorite part was the commission structure, as most of your income relied on your ability to sell, which selling is your job in sales. The leadership team was also amazing and did a fantastic job creating today's environment for younger company joiners.

Cons

No Cons- It is a challenging environment and demanding. So if you want to work hard, and truly learn how to sell complex solutions. RRD is the place to be. Selling paper and technology solutions is challenging, but if you can do this you can do anything.

Pros

Its a very big company

Cons

Cutting costs by reducing staff means little help and overworked employees who don't have the capacity to help.
