It's Christmas Everyday for Management and Shareholders of RRD.

Anonymous employee

Pros

There are none. We are all experiencing stress-related health issues from the working conditions and living in fear as to when they'll fire you to save money.

Cons

After the company announced the 1% raise we received for 2013, they purchased yet another competitor. They strip the assets from these companies and have shut down 27 plants since 2007. RRD has taken away anything that was considered a perk and make sure the upper management and shareholders get their $. They no longer contribute $ to our retirement accounts. They fire experienced people over 50 and hire younger people who have a degree but don't have a clue what to do with them. When someone quits they don't replace them, instead they spread the work to others. This trickledown effect is very painful when you want to take a vacation day and there's no coverage. Many employees are unable to use their vacation time and lose it. Do yourself a favor and don't ever apply. We are treated like mushrooms, kept in the dark and feed manure.
