Pros

My experience is different then many posted here. I thought the company had many nice perks and a number of training options. As long as you worked hard you seemed to get ahead.

Cons

The company is fairly large. Some people may not be able to handle the levels of management and the number of approvals that were required to complete projects.

Pros

Roles are not specific so you can learn a lot of different areas. There is a lot of flexibility. Most of the people are hard-working and intelligent.

Cons

There is no communication. So much turnover that nothing gets done. Senior Management is not acknowledging that there is a problem and, in many cases, are contributing to the problems.

Pros

I liked the job...but, I was in International assigned to Bangkok Thailand covering 8 SE Asian countries. I had a ball. Later, some good managers were passed over due to politics and the "blame game" perpetuated by a few, but I had bailed by then.. However, as long as one did not work in Glendora continuously, it was nice. I didn't care for the economy class air travel, but that was really minor. The annual sales meeting was a pain as was the Irrigation Show. 99% of the time I was happy with the job and RBI was not a penny pinching firm when considering travel expenses.

Cons

Sales targets were not likely to be met anytime & the biggest downside was little or no control over prices in the field. Israelis were very aggressive about keeping business and would not stop at a little thing like ethics, so it was difficult to make the sales.
