Pros
Very easy way to get into the Irrigation/Green industry. Great people.
Cons
Very little stability with in the company. Product quality can be up & down and the factory won't often back up their work. Layoffs are an often occurance - there are cycles of heavy hiring and then heavy layoffs. Before a layoff, many employees are "run out"; their lives are made so miserable at work so they quit before RB can lay them off. No severance package then. Turnover in field sales is about every 2yrs, same with inside marketing group. This makes for a very jumbled perception from the outside. Everyone within the irrigation industry knows someone who "used to" work for RB... they can't hire anyone with experience from within the industry so they always reach outside into other industries for capable sales, marketing & engineering.
