Pros

Market share has not gone down yet, despite the lack of innovation and technology. The people who work there are nice, but no one gets too committed to a company that doesn't respect employee needs.

Cons

Very little done to keep employees happy. Vacation is 2 weeks. No paid leave for new mothers or fathers. Full formal attire for employees. They still force men to shave their faces. Company meetings look like funeral gatherings. They are out of step in the market and in the area.

Pros

Great corporate office location, with free parking at the mall. You get paid on time every pay period. As your tenure increases, you are better suited to be a candidate to travel back in time to the 1950s.

Cons

Bullying is rampant, starting with executives. Middle managers who shame, ridicule and humiliate their subordinates are rewarded as successful. This has led to a toxic and negative work environment. Flexible work hours are highly discouraged at the corporate office. Employees have one hour enforced lunches, but managers in certain departments verbally reprimand ( never in writing) salaried employees for penny pinching on hours by managers if they notice you taking a lunch break everyday. Work process is highly disorganized in many departments making successful completion of projects a rarity in the company. I have waited two years to write a review on this company hoping my opinion would change. It hasn't changed and I'm left with stress related health issues due to a highly toxic environment and 9X5 work weeks.
