Pros

There are a lot of very talented people in this company. Good intentions to be a company of top talent. Management is not afraid to change

Cons

Management talks about being available and open to suggestions from all levels of the organization. This is only true when they are told what they already think. This has killed open discussion. Some top talent has been released by the water group. People have been put in positions who lack true business or technical talent. The sales force and remote employees are now expected to pay out of pocket for business items like office phone lines and Internet access. The company has become very top heavy

Pros

* CEO transparency * Decent pay * Good benefits

Cons

Executive leadership, especially in Pool Solutions, down to the director level have absolutely no clue the workloads the lower level staff are under, while expecting everyone to achieve unattainable goals. The performance review process is a joke, and not based on observation, but manager opinion only (goes for most companies). Not one Director is there to set you up for success and just expect you to figure it out without decent direction. They're absolutely unwilling to invest in necessary infrastructure. Marketing budget is a joke considering they're trying to act as a CPG company and by no means are anywhere close to being a legitimate CPG operated company. It's not a good or fun place to work. Just run. It's fine if you're desperate and looking for some remote work, but that's about it. If you are looking to move up in a company, like most big one's this is not the place for you. They love having old timers there, keeping everyone at nearly the exact same level that they started at over 10 years, 20 years ago. I guess it's a decent place if moving up the corporate ladder is not your thing and you just want to rot in the same spot.
