Pros

Basically, the pay is about the only reason to stay which is pretty decent. Other than that, there really is no other redeeming reasons to work here.

Cons

Every one of the negative reviews I have read on here is completely correct. I cannot state it more succinctly than has already been done by others. These are not disgruntled employees. I suspect the few good reviews on here are made by individuals who have a constantly optimistic attitude. However, I'm a realist. This company has seriously lost what made it great. The last couple nominations for Top 100 Companies to work for really hasn't been deserved and has been pushed by management more than anything. I'm not sure how other departments are, but the pressroom is a total nightmare. Over the last few years, there have been numerous layoffs, they have got rid of several presses and are now closing one of the plants down south. Printing is already a dying industry and management keeps making decisions that only exacerbate the losses. Since I've been here I've seen so many talented people leave on their own, get let go due to downsizing or other reasons. Team members are constantly getting shuffled around. Management says one thing, then a month later the plan changes. Morale is at the lowest I have ever seen at any employer I have ever been with. They have had a constant stream of temps coming through the pressroom so the company can pay people less for doing the same work, leaving pressroom members constantly training new people only to lose them a couple weeks later and have to start the whole process again. There are no breaks here, you take them when you can and if you are webbing up the press over and over again the whole night, that's what it is. You just gotta skip out on eating. There are numerous people leaving this place and those that aren't are fed up and I know numerous people looking for other places to work. This places days are numbered.

Pros

Has an ice machine and wonderful receptionist

Cons

If I could give this company less than one star, I would. If you're looking for a hostile, demeaning and ineffective work environment with managers who bully and target employees this is the place for you. Leadership all the way up the ladder sits on a throne of lies. They aggressively promote core values such as ownership and trustworthiness while simultaneously placing blame and unrealistic expectations upon associates. Associates are provided inadequate training, antiquated systems and are given unreasonable workloads; when a mistake is inevitably made management pits employees against each other and encourages backstabbing. If that isn't bad enough, sexual harassment issues are kept under wraps by management as well as HR. Tenured employees were systematically pushed out of the company and openly disrespected by upper management who "love to fire people". While offering the option to work from home they do not even supply all employees with functioning laptops. For a company that is trying to push digital their technology and systems are from the Stone Age. All associates are responsible for reporting to a sales person, the sales team as a whole is allowed to verbally abuse associates, make unrealistic demands and are not trained. I cannot emphasize enough how miserable you will be showing up to work everyday while leaderships smiles in your face only to attack you in every way possible behind closed doors. Valassis sets its employees up for failure from the moment they walk in the door.

Pros

I have nothing good to say about this company. Research and find a better company to be employed by. Do not apply to this organization.

Cons

Not a good work environment. Constant change which leads to mis-management. Does not value its employees. Micro-manages. You will not want to get up and go to work for this company.
