Pros

Great cafeteria, benefits available form day one.

Cons

Management lies about duties to get you to take the job. Once they get you on the floor, they are very condescending and rude. Management has no experience doing they job they are in charge of.

Pros

Pay is good for the area. Great benefits, including PTO.

Cons

no job security - doesn't matter how long or how hard you work. Unum does annual house-cleaning which has everyone more worried about keeping there job rather than doing a good job. This culture does not build a culture of trust in the employees. Mgmt values your ability to follow orders more than your individual contribution. Promotions are based on the biggest 'yes man'.
