Pros

The pros are I had a great boss who really cared about work/life balance, cared about his independent retail customers and would go the extra mile. The company had pretty good benefits (medical, vision dental, 401k) and some nice perks to go along with it.

Cons

Company was always in a state of management flux. You never knew from one day to the next who was getting canned. Work/life balance for field people was very tough. Territories got bigger and bigger due to cut backs. The independent business owners who made Scotts-Miracle Gro the name it is today were being forgotten.
