Pros

It's a company that does a really great job of retaining employees, for better or for worse. It's nice not to have to worry about losing your job, the salaries are OK for the area and the 401K match is good. High deductible health plan offers coverage second to none. You can easily change teams if you are bored with the work you are doing or your teammates drive you up the wall. If you are working with an enthusiastic team on one of the newer projects it's awesome. New hybrid remote work plan post-covid has employees working 5 days in office and 5 days remotely for every 2 week period. This may change in the future however.

Cons

To get promoted you have to win the popularity contest, there is a secret council that meets for every promotion (not kidding). Is a team mate driving you mad? They're not going anywhere, so suck it up or find a team to make a lateral move to.

Pros

I love my territory, my direct manager, and my team. I enjoy my coworkers. The lunch stipend is nice. I’ve had a lot of really great mentors during my time. The company had given me some good opportunities including free continuing education and career advancement.

Cons

The pay has been lower than the industry standard. The benefits are decent in the long term, but the raises for those growing within the company are almost insulting. Any attempts to negotiate are shut down. Bonuses have also been on the low end, although I recognize they aren’t a given. Paid time off is also somewhat limited with slow increases every 5 years. Upper management has changed and I don’t feel it’s been positive. There has been low morale and high turnover. Starting pay has remained stagnant despite increased demands of returning to office which I feel contributes to staffing difficulties. Cost of gas, car maintenance, and work attire have now cut into wages. The company felt like it cared about its staff when I started, but I have begun to feel like a cog in the corporate wheel. Corners are being cut in the name of “efficiency,” however the foundational flaws haven’t been addressed.
