A place where you have freedom and a long leash to chase your career dreams.

Too many upper management and corporate employees at the top that seems to expand with every restructuring.

Pros

Typical benefits 401k , ok healthcare , half day fridays, pto at your choice, limited company car use

Cons

Pay is very low compared to others especially compared to cost of living. Lots of profit but no raise for even cost of living and bonus is very screwed. Many employees says this over many years and many states Many of us are aware and it's insulting. We have no say on how they waste company money even if we have other ideas they aren't heard and then either no one gets bonus cause management screwed up budget or only certain ones the rest goes to PM getting a bigger bonus. Long time spent out of town for some and when in town expected to pick up slack but never get rewarded when everyone thought a large bonus was coming for long hard hours and our stats were met for team to get one. But only select couple got one and it's just bad morale ....,

Pros

Great Company to work for, great benefits, very good culture, active with charity, team building exercises and training, good work life balance.

Cons

Fairly large gap between manager salary and myself. Difficulty breaking into hiring/management position - ok if based on performance but no explanation why. Not sure where I stand from a performance standpoint bc lack of criticism or praise.
