Great company undermined by inept local branch management

Pros

Great brand, market leverage, name recognition and resources

Cons

Old boys club. If you are a middle aged white man you will never, ever be fired. Doesn't matter how poorly he's performed. Insufficient accountability of poor performers. Generally their work load is reduced but pay remains the same. Revenue generated by top performers underwrites low performers existence.

Too much change for the sake of centralization and cost-cutting

Pros

There are many good people to work with.

Cons

The last 7 years has been nothing but change, much of it good, but some very painful for much of the company. The work-live balance is non-existant as working on a majority of weekends is unavoidable and there is little opportunity to take vacation time.
