      Pros

      Being able to see my staff be successful and grow as an employee

      Cons

      Can be hard work, with a lot of responsibility, not that it is bad, it is something that you need to understand.

      Historically a great place to work, but now...we are BIG

      Pros

      As a long time employee for over 2 decades, I have seen a lot. The compensation package is very competitive. The local culture has been great. The autonomy as a sales rep is a big plus. The company allows us to run our business within certain parameters.

      Cons

      We are now a BIG corporate company. We have always had the ability in the past to make decisions at the local level, but now we seem to be directed by a corporate team. As we have grown, our local levels of management have increased causing a lot of redundancy and poor communication. Our benefits are terrible for a company our size. With each acquisition, our benefits have deteriorated.

      Pros

      Fair compensation, great leave time, continuous learning, supportive leadership, lots of perks through perks at work, bonus program, annual increase, shall I go on? haha

      Cons

      The only con as a manager that I can think of is you have to go through a lot to let go of a problem employee.
