Pros

It is a warm environment with friendly people, fair pay, it is rather family-like for a big company. Personable, approachable senior leadership. Annual reviews are coupled with a raise for most people. Hard to get fired-it's okay to be average... (also a con)

Cons

Top-down management culture, micromanagers are born and raised here. Lack of decision making and independent thought. Ideas die everyday because they are taken up the chain by someone else, usually by a "yes-man" who cares more about having the right answer than getting behind you. If you don't have a title you have no voice. They move ineffective managers to lame duck positions, fail to hold people accountable for results, slow to fire. Good-intentioned upper management suffers from inbreeding, they don't know what they don't know.

Pros

I enjoy taking to some coworkers at least I know I'm not the only one that hates this company

Cons

I've worked here for almost six years.Horrible management, promotions are only given to those that are "favorites" management will even tell you to find another job as "everyone's replaceable" no matter how good of a worker you are. You're not good enough to promote unless you have any degree, experience doesn't matter. The turn around with associates is terrible and they don't care. I agree with all the other negative feedback on this company!! All the positive are either people that weren't here long enough to see it or they are current higher up jokes for management. Can't hardly stand coming to work. I'm currently looking for another job.
