Pros

Company has survived for 147 years...in spite of themselves.

Cons

Clueless manipulative dishonest management from top down. Flat lined earnings for years. Millions spent on failed new initiatives that are not tested properly or clearly thought out. Hiring of green employees then layoffs of hundreds of experienced employees within months. Managers that have false sense of real world because they have never worked anywhere else. Literally licked boots up the ladder. Success of Sales/Order Takers is predicated on the accounts assigned, NOT sales ability.

Pros

Most of the drivers are very supportive in sharing the workload. Paid time off is nice. Not much else to put here

Cons

No upward potential, they would rather hire from outside than promote from within. The drivers shake hands with more customers than the sales or csrs but are the least appreciated.
