Pros

- Cafeteria; Child Care Centre; Gym facilities on-site - Great perks if you are in Sales - Sales is KING here! - Great perks if you are an executive.

Cons

This company's philosophy is to pay at P50 - mid-point level of the market as they believe that the other benefits make up for not being paid more. However, having been here for more than 10 years, training and education budgets (and a number of other benefits) are being slowly cut (without corresponding INCREASES in the base salary). I think employees are getting short-changed day-by-day.

Pros

Many of the employee's in the day to day operations are some of the best and hard working people you will ever meet. All are overworked and under paid.

Cons

Ritchie has one of the poorest management groups in place now that it has ever had, all left over from the former CEO.

Pros

Great coworkers, endless opportunities in the market, decent benifits, company car, other than auction time plenty of free time

Cons

Compensation well below market, upper management either legacy guys with out current business understanding or Canadian yes men who don't have abilities to lead or sell. New CEO has driven away all dedicated staff leaving only incompetence. Compensation plan has more deduction from bonus than additions.
