Pros

Great benefits and perks (there's even insurance for your pets)! The company has open-door leadership where everyone is approachable, everyone participates, and there is an employee-led DEI committee that promotes inclusivity, diversity and embraces our current cultural shift. Overall, a great company, a great working environment, and a great work-life balance. CHOCOLATE EVERY DAY!

Cons

Currently remodeling - so a lot of noise, but construction will be over soon and all the building amenities will be available again.

Pros

Tons of opportunities for personal and career growth at this company. Russell Stover is part of the Lindt and Ghirardelli chocolate family, so with that comes financial stability and global resources and career opportunities. Russell Stover itself is undergoing a major business transformation right now from a brand revitalization to a manufacturing and IT systems overhaul. They have hired a strong talent pool to help achieve these aggressive goals. They recently hired a new CEO and VP Operations and the outlook is very positive for future growth. This is not a place for someone who likes to maintain the status quo. But for someone who enjoys a good business challenge and the idea of revitalizing an iconic American brand I highly recommend it. Pay and benefits are competitive.

Cons

There is quite a bit of turnover right now given all the leadership changes at the top, so that makes it challenging for those who remain to cover the gaps and train the new hires. But that is to be expected during a business transformation like this. We also have a big learning curve right now with a newly implemented ERP system. It's good to see the company is investing in the future, but it's difficult to get the entire company trained and fluent in the new system. It takes time and can be frustrating, especially for people who have been here awhile and are used to the old way of doing things.
