Pros

When I first went to work there my salary was a little higher than other companies in the area. The benefits were decent.

Cons

The performance review process was a joke. If you were tight with your manager you got a good review, if you weren't you got a bad review. Even though my slalry started off good, it was hard to get a increase unless you moved to a different area.

Pros

Solid company. Very profitable business model. Reliable employer. Good pay for relatively easy work. Fulfilling job if you enjoy helping others.

Cons

Many managers are hired in from the outside as opposed to being promoted from within. As a result, they don't fully understand how the business operates and sometimes get in the way.

Pros

Great opportunities for advancement if willing to work hard. Entrepreneurial company with strong leadership. Sets a high standard and demands excellence. Teammates are very dedicated, among the most talented in the industry, and support one another.

Cons

Challenging pace can sometimes be hard to maintain. The company has grown rapidly over the last several years, which has led to some silos popping up and can make information-sharing a challenge. This is improving recently with effort from management.
