Pros

They offer great pay and benefits. Most managers provide clear objectives and get out of your way so that you can get the work done. Quality of life and career development are emphasised. What you are capable of doing is more important than the degree you hold.

Cons

New ideas take too long to catch on and to implement. In the current recession of 2009 many good associates are being laid off for what appear to be for short term cash flow management gains. This perceived as a lack of loyalty to associates and causing significant concern amoung those remaining.

Pros

+ Large budgets and a potentially big variety of technology to work with. + Many co-workers were very bright, eager to share

Cons

+ Management was not honest with themselves about how advancements were awarded. They conducted surveys and created several employee groups to address recognition and rewards but continued to use a "good ole boy" network to select promotions. + Safety Integrity Respect Excellence was the company slogan, yet copyright violations were rampant, often purchasing small quantities of vendor mateials and copying them for internal use in repeated training classes + Compared themselves to competitors at the expense of focusing on internal excellence + Management set unrealistic expectations and blamed low level workers, never the planning process + Desired changes in performance but were un-willing to change behaviour

Pros

Family company that will be there tomorrow. They take good care of their people. Packers Tickets are given out if you work at headquarters. Will fly you around for training and project work. Generally travelled 4-6 weeks a year on a job where travel was not "required" Recently had a huge overhaul of managers in maintenance Dept.

Cons

There are some politically motivated rules and regulations that come down and some favoritism in promotions, but generally hard work and creativity will be rewarded. Employee focus is starting to wane with troubles the trucking industry is presently encountering. Green Bay is not the mecca of fabulous places to live.
