Pros

They offer some good benefits and although they don't stay long they seem to attract quality people. They donate time and money to charities even if it is only to try and boost their brand.

Cons

No direction, revolving door for leadership so nothing has the chance to work, favouritism for certain locations, corporate greed, constant re-orgs so everyone is terrified about their job, poor communication, people are afraid to speak their minds for fear of being fired, no opportunity for growth. Employees are expendable and not an asset to the company.

Pros

In 9 months, I have been through 4 different pay structures. Each of them slowly decreasing my income. The company is going through major changes and job security is zero. If you are considering a sales position- proceed with caution. Ask many questions in the interview regarding compensation and be prepared to survive on your base salary alone. Pros: PTO, benefits, in the process of major (forward?) change

Cons

Cons: ever changing compensation plans, higher (achievable) sales goals, outdated management style (although they are trying to change). Co-workers with a lot of drama... Upward mobility is challenging (especially if you're not part of the clique). The sales teams are being replaced by younger people, it's a great indicator that the company no longer wants to invest in its sales department.
