Pros

I have been with the company for several years. a short time ago I was nominated and participated in an executive training program run by the HR team. It allowed me to grow and meet other leaders in the company. This past year they introduced a 401k match and expanded benefits. I very much appreciate the opportunity to grow within the company

Cons

unable to think of any right now

Pros

Decades of employing non college educated people, who built the company and innovated like there is no tomorrow, where they trained everyone to do their best, and it was successful. In the past 2 years they have upgraded benefits to attract talent.

Cons

They want to grow the business, but they do not have the talent. The management team the CEO brought it (as all CEO's do) are not even close to the talent that was there previously. I say previously as they just went through 3 rounds of layoffs - -and they did so by sacrificing many of those who built the company to what it is . . Their loyalty of 15-20-30 years of service which showed how great a company it was, and they received raises from time to time . . .and are now being put out to pasture for younger, lower paid employees who don't understand the culture, history, product lines and more. I would say, great place to work for a few years, but always keep your ears to the ground before they dump you too.

Pros

Discounts on tech gear. Jewish holidays off and half day Fridays for Shabbos.

Cons

-Sexist POS males who gossip about the women and objectify them while posing as the "holiest" men around. Don't trust any of them. -A filthy office building covered in rodents, mouse feces, roaches, and a general layer of crud. We were constantly ill with respiratory issues and headaches working in the office building. The office looks like a telemarketing scam office one would find in the bowels of India. It's like coming to work in a slumlord's building everyday. -Absolute favoritism in the assigning of accounts and sending reps to events. Everything here works on a buddy system. It's like a male locker room environment. -LADIES- Ask for way more than you think you're worth in the interview. They always offer you one third or less what the men are making here. We learned this the hard way. Haggle them right back! -Products are constantly out of stock, so be prepared for all of your clients to hate you and to hardly make quota. - The most ancient interdepartmental communications methods possible. Usually you're waiting for layers of approvals or just the one single person who runs the team to answer you. Forget about shipping packages in a rush to those angry clients. -Zero diversity. Highest positions in the company are held by Jewish males or white males. The list goes on and on and on.
