Pros

Easy job, no learning curve.

Cons

Management too focused on numbers rather than actual results. Safety is a joke, and is talked about but concerns are largely ignored. No internal promotions, across-the board minimal pay raises. No promotions or raises based on merit. The epitome of dead-end job.

Pros

I can eat today, pay my taxes, and I have insurance. Your boss or management team will change every 12-24 months. CEO Bradly Jacobs is engaged but too many filters between him and the actual employees who care.

Cons

Loyalty to the employer is gone since the mergers. Senior Management is not interested in learning the business and clients, but completely engaged in how to show a better profit margin. Passing the "smell test" is a long gone attribute to leadership- outside executives are killing the customer base for the hunt of fame and money. Raises are rare- rather you "COULD" be awarded a single paycheck/payout (not a bonus) .No Profit sharing outside of executives (same people with questionable business practices). Executable goals, and value to contracts do not drive raises and promotions. Being vocal and threatening to leave the company will ensure a raise- even for sub-par performers.

Pros

The only pro I can think of is the people (excluding management - director and above). Not too much more to say about the Pros.

Cons

Too many hours - not a good work/home balance. No appreciation from Directors/Controller for the hours/hard work that you do. Bad working environment within the accounting departments - directors play favorites. Expectations are set way too high. At times I felt like a horse being whipped by the master. Do not bother going to HR for help - because they are no help unless you are management - speaking about one person in general.
