Pros

None that I can think of.

Cons

Benefits (e.g. no 401K matching, Healthcare cost is very expensive for very little coverage,...); Middle management is below par; Leadership tries to make a place for itself in the Digital Marketing area without understanding that business; Upper Mgt always asks for more, but does nothing to help, except for its quarterly "thank you all, we're the best, but..." communication.

Pros

Company paid training, fun office culture at times, good early exposure . I learned alot in my sales role in regards to how difficult it can be selling a commoditized product. I did most of it all on my own and sold some accounts..this was a good fight but one I couldnt keep up

Cons

The print industry is dieing and rrd although being the biggest and best shop around is going down with it. The sales personal who run the largest accounts are dinosaurs that will not help you at all with your book of business. I was 1 of 45 new associates in my class...90% of those individuals have since left the company in under 2 years so turnover is very high... the company culture is old white guys who like to drink and talk trash and who are stuck in the past...they just inherit accounts and manage existing business ...I would say join the company if your new to industry but that would be poor guidance because this industry is unique in that its drying up fast the stock is down 66% year over year and 96% in the last 3 years

Communication lacks vision, transparency and clarity. Teams not as aligned as a result. Execs stuck in hierarchical past.
