5 years to get to top pay

Pros

Great place to work. Good benefits, pay is ok. Higher paying positions are offered to internal candidates first. Most operators and mechanics are easy to get along with.

Cons

5 years to top pay. HR manager needs to read policies before making decisions. Steps up in pay grade are supposed to be automatic.

Pros

Great colleagues, good products. Nice offices and good benefits, but not good enough to tolerare the disrespectful manners of the management

Cons

Micro management, controlling environment, dress code from the 50s, arrogant attitude towards clients, suppliers and employees. Stressful even when results are good.

Pros

They provide bottled water. The sweatshop atmosphere is lovely, especially with execs from HR wanting to just fire people.

Cons

No growth, no time-off without fear of losing your job, dress code is so last century, lack of Senior Management truly understanding what is going on in the business and making decisions only based on numbers from a piece of paper
