Pros

Great salaries and bonuses. Great brand. Real go getter environment. Extremely talented and intelligent employees. Wonderful ideas for new products or presenting new products. People really care and have a great deal of passion. Beautiful offices in Charlotte NC.

Cons

Some of the managers were great and empowered their employees. But those were few and far between. Many of the uppers micromanaged below them and it trickled down.The energy of the go-getters is depleted by negativity. Pats on the back are really really rate. I think if you looked at the balance sheet, thank you's are much cheaper than the bonuses handed out. Money was spent on beautiful office space but probably the premium price meant people are packed in like sardines.

Pros

Opportunity to earn decent bonuses. As long as you hit your goals every month, then you are fine. Unfortunately that is easier said than done.

Cons

Terrible management. Most of the managers didn't have any business skills and little to no knowledge of people management skills. Most of the managers did not even have a college education. Forced overtime was the rule, not the exception. Terrible work/life balance. Only take this job if you have no other option.
