Pros
Market and industry leaders which causes a puppet master mentality. Good health benefits. Work culture is cubicle life where you come to work, clock in 8 hour day, then go home.
Cons
Very "cushy" company. Information is transitioning from tribal ways of being passed down from start of company to having it backed up on software which is a new process so it imposes a challenge in itself. The industry is completely dominated by Chamberlin and LiftMaster so no competition to impose challenges. A lot of the challenges are internal obstacles. Be aware of what job description states, will find a lot of extra steps and mundane tasks to achieve a simple result that will need approvals by everyone along the way. Will hear "its the way we always done it" a lot. Printed materials consistently have errors, mistakes, and misprints. This literature is then shared with all of the customers and internal organization. A lot of internal fires being put out which causes the customers to be delayed. A lot of what is said and what actually is done tells two separate stories. Noticed a lot of finger pointing, and leadership never taking ownership of actions. For being a strong leader in the market and having the stature and prestige associated with the company the sustainability and environmental processes are poor and wasteful.
