Pros

I worked with very professional and motivated employees who always tried to do what was right for the company and the customer as well.

Cons

As a woman, opportunities for advancement were very limited unless you had a technical or engineering degree. Women were almost never considered for outside sales jobs in our department even though the inside sales jobs were 100% filled by women.

Pros

Excellent pay and benefits packages

Cons

During down cycles there are mass layoffs and cutting of people in spite of the knowledge that when prices recover they will have to rehire those people and at a much higher salary.
