      Pros

      Promoted within and descent salary/bonus structure and training was good.

      Cons

      Too much emphasis on life insurance, changed from a long term career organization to turnover driven cost reduction process.

      Pros

      Great training program, family atmosphere. Good town to raise a family (Owatonna). A lot of nepotism and cronyism (positive if you are a Buxton).

      Cons

      Old boy network, Jack Welch management model (get rid of bottom performing 20% of employees whether warranted or not). Limited fresh ideas, co-signers in upper management. Limited promotion ops and functions on lower end of pay range. Manages by intimidation.

      VERY conservative culture where everyone moves at the same pace

      Pros

      Co-workers are great to work with for the most part. I have made many friends at Federated. Also, their benefits package is very good.

      Cons

      The conservative culture is terrible. Business casual dress I can deal with but I feel like it is "big brother" out there. I've never missed a deadline and yet I leave 5 minutes early for break and get asked about it. Oh, did I mention I also put in overtime to make sure the job gets done when they need to? Yea, that they are ok with but not when you take an extra 5 minutes to get your head on straight. Also, everyone moves at the same pace when it comes to promotions and advancement. The opportunity to really move upward doesn't exist whether you are 10 times better or 10 times worse than the person sitting next to you.
