      Not a good place to work

      Pros

      There are good people there but most leave. They pay well because they have to to attract people to go there. Their products are good, but they don't focus on customers as partners, only a means to make more money.

      Cons

      Leadership, if you want to call it that, is by fear, intimidation and creating a stressful environment. They want employees to be "uncomfortable" when management is in the room and they still wear suits and ties and require customers and suppliers to as well if they visit. They talk about empowerment, but. It is a joke. Step out of line and you will quickly be shown the door.

      If you have a military background, this may be the place for you. If not, you will regret working for this company.

      Pros

      I had a real nice office and a paycheck. The benefits were better than most companies. My co-workers were great people.

      Cons

      The dress code was archaic, nepotism was the norm, and the C-level managers were self involved and remarkably sure of their dismal abilities to run a company well.

      Pros

      They have great new recruits.

      Cons

      Poor management that have no skills or styles other than micro managing with a different day different attitude. The most disfunctional environment where yelling blaming and finger pointing run wild. No accurate data to work with and constantly shoving this under the rug. They have no integrity whats so ever. Fear is their only goal. Their antiquated computer system does not work either does the new system that they have. They have two systems that don't work and no one there knows have to fix it. Stay away from this pit of hell!!!!!!!!!
