Pros

Still have some amazing, dedicated people working for the company Good reputation from previous business Government sales = continued business opportunity

Cons

Riding on the coat tails of when it was a great company Incredibly bureaucratic - purchased by investment agency and driven into the ground Turned into "good old boy's club" in management due to external hiring to support new markets a few years back, and still haven't "taken out the garbage" Company has completely lost its soul Internal operations team overworked, underpaid, and just one or two employees leaving away from complete exodus Severe cutbacks after change of ownership took away a HUGE amount of talent - both directly and indirectly. Dramatically underpaying employees

Pros

Awesome management, excellent work life balance and high expectations. Absolutely LOVED my role here, my team and my boss. They expect a lot and will treat you right if you are a hard worker and honest employee.

Cons

I resigned after a change in CSuite leadership (CEO, President of our Department etc), and other layoffs I felt changes were coming and wanted to get ahead of those. I resigned however loved working for Red River and would work for them again if the opportunity presented itself. True professionals.
