Pros

Health benefits are great, and working with suppliers has its usual perks.

Cons

You get thrown to the wolves from week one and the hours are ridiculous unless you're support staff. Cliques and favoritism run rampant while upper management either turns a blind eye, becomes a part of it, or is too inexperienced to do anything about it. Employee morale is non-existent and everyone is miserable from the bottom up.

Pros

Travel opportunities. Former corporate management was extremely supportive and good to work with. Free food. Free drama.

Cons

Work life balance. Don’t be a mother to young children if you want to work here. Verbal communication vs. what you get in an email will be contradictory….the gaslighting was unbelievable. Digital metric systems put in place by new corporate management has taken all the creativity and actual management out of the job. Will be mad at you if you don’t make the numbers they want to see, but will provide zero guidance on how best to do so. Hours were extremely long in order to complete all job responsibilities. New upper management is inflexible to specific account needs. Each account is different. HR does not help you - they protect the company. If you need to terminate an employee - they make it impossible.
