Pros

1. Employee discounts on decent quality products. 2. Great opportunities to network with other employers at various trade shows. 3. Great opportunities to gain perspective on what "bad corporate culture" really means. 4. ????

Cons

RAM management is laughably incompetent with atrocious communication skills, low moral integrity, and general cultural insensitivity. They present themselves as experts in their field but in reality, they're simply dilettantes with zero managerial experience. High quality employees realize working for this company is an abusive relationship within the first 6-months of employment and inevitably jump ship at the first opportunity. The exodus of sharp, high-quality, and motivated employees is consistent enough that management has hired mediocre performers in a futile attempt to slow down the revolving door. All previous negative reviews are accurate and without exaggeration. Former RAM employees occasionally get together to reflect and appreciate how much better their lives have become since leaving this company. This place really is that bad. To current employees: The grass is truly greener on the other side. Network with your contacts and leverage your talent and skills to find a better company to work for. Or better yet, start your own business and be your own boss! Your quantity of life will improve once you leave RAM.

Pros

There's good snacks teas and coffees.

Cons

This place is completely miserable from top to bottom. The workplace is toxic between departments, and even within them. Management doesn't trust their workers and the workers don't think management is looking out for them and for good reason. Owners truly believe butts in seats is all that matters. You are expected to be at your at your desk for at least eight hours and logging activity to the CRM. And you're not actually in a sales position, no matter what they tell you in the interview - you're a customer service rep, and you're going to take very angry phone calls and emails from customers all day, ever day. That's your entire job! If I had known that, I never would have taken the job. Work from home priviledges were recently taken away without warning for the entire sales department after having them for a long time, even though nobody was abusing it, and there was no explanation given about why. One more benefit gone, just like that. Not to mention our health care plan, dental plan and PTO are all terrible. Not just salary, but the bonus structure for the sales team is a joke, too. It doesn't matter how much sales growth there is, your bonus will be pathetically small. We're talking single digit percentage of your salary. Don't believe what management tells you in your interview! It's all so far underneath what other companies offer its pathetic. But that's what the company is. Leadership is cheap, period. This place exists to make the few owners rich and everyone else miserable. The assembly workers aren't even allowed to sit down!There is no care for work life balance, or well being of the employees. You're going to work on Christmas Eve, New Years Eve, you name it, even though the leadership will all be off vacationing for weeks at a time.

Pros

The paychecks don't bounce. You get quarterly bonuses. There are a few good employees that make this place tolerable until you find something else.

Cons

Upper management is greedy and doesn't value its employees. This is shown through absolutely no perks in the office, an argument when ordering anything other then basic office supplies, and low noncompetitive pay. If you are hourly you will be tricked into agreeing to a "salary". Which means they will adjust your hourly pay so that your normal hours plus overtime equal that salary. In order to take a doctors appointment or a sick day you have to use PTO or make it up. This encourages sick employees to come in and get everyone else sick, which forces them to use their PTO. They only offer a flat non increasing 10 days of vacation a year, what is this the 1960's? There is always talk of change but never any action and the excuse of limited resources is always used. A mandatory 46 hour work week causes employees to become bitter and seek out new employment, the only ones who stay cling to the hope that when Jeff retires things will change. Growing pains get used as an excuse for a lot of the problems at RAM, but this isn't the case. Upper management not valuing their employees causes people to quit and unrealistic hours prevent the hire of new employees. Limited resources is the issue but, growth isn't the cause. People quitting because they find something better is the cause.
