Very cut throat

Pros

Weekly paychecks with not so bad payment amounts, previous employment with them helps your chances in getting hired again, and family oriented working environment...if you are open to allow closer relationships with co-workers.

Cons

Advancing to higher positions will be based on who you know and their relationship with the next person. Too many people watching the next person to go and tell managers on irrelevant information. I have watched people destroy a person's integrity and future existence at the company. Managers depend on everyone else to tell them what's happening instead of actively keeping an eye on things and finding out what is really happening. Too many people were docked based on someone else's relationship with a higher manager. Lastly, certain people (races) will never be in the top level positions. Research that and see for yourself.

Just 'OK'

Pros

Very people focused company with solid benefits. Rapid growth and reinvestment into their business has created much opportunity. They are ethical and giving in their community.

Cons

Dated good old boy culture that shows with very little young talent. Little or no meaningful engagement from leadership. Operationally a nightmare with entrenched legacy systems across the enterprise and little willingness to change. Every decision made seems to go through the legal department. Very hard to accomplish anything. Everything moves extremely slow. Simply put, they're 30 years behind schedule with all aspects.

Pros

lots of hours and decent wages.

Cons

There's always people with questionable eligibility to work. Some say they're from Minnesota but their trucks have Texas plates. They've been here 15 yrs. but still talk like a 2 yr. old. etc. etc.
