Pros

Essendant has great benefits and pto offered. The management is better now that the micro manager left. They feed us a lot!

Cons

Some favoritism. some lazy associates that make you pick up their slack. Pay isn’t competitive. Not that bad of a place to work though.

Pros

Pay is adequate. They are fairly generous with work and life balance. Pretty nice offices.

Cons

Long time employees that manage processes, not results. Very bureaucratic and political. If you are looking for job satisfaction, go elsewhere.
