      Pros

      Secure work and opportunity to move locations. Good Benefits but they are costly Worked with some good hourly associates and good peers.

      Cons

      Upper Management does not care about anything but the bottom line. People are not treated fairly. They don't pay decent wages to the hourly staff and cut back on hours. Hard to maintain a motivated staff. Benefits are costly and wage increases are low if you receive any.

      Pros

      I've worked in three Compass sectors in the past three years, all in professional roles in both the field and corporate office. The company has unlimited growth potential if you're willing to put in the work to move up and excel, and the company offers a huge variety of positions, departments, sectors, etc to cater to varying professional interests. The overall business outlook is very positive - this is a secure company. The compensation is fairly competitive within the marketplace, and you can work for the company across the US and globe, offering great flexibility for individuals needing it. There are several great leaders and managers throughout the company who are willing to invest time and energy into growing associates that want to progress upwards in their careers with Compass (you just have to find them).

      Cons

      Compass is huge and it can be easy to get lost in the shuffle and numbers. I don't believe their benefit packages are very competitive - average medical benefits, poor maternity leave and family leave benefits, poor telecommuting offerings, average PTO allowances. They stay very behind the curve on modernizing benefits, office conveniences and perks, etc. Regarding the corporate office in Charlotte, I wish they offered more food options onsite (they are largely a food company, after all) as well as more onsite perks such as daycare, various flexible work spaces (ie - more collaboration spaces, perhaps a quiet room and a coffee house space, etc). Technology is way behind the curve. Although they do have a lot of talented managers and professionals, the number of talented people-managers in the operations is extremely limited. Offer better salaries to your feet on the ground (unit directors, RDOs, etc) so we can hire, mentor, train, and promote better talent moving forward. Work/life balance for unit directors is extremely poor in most cases.
