Pros

The job itself is not too rough. If your looking for a paycheck every two weeks and don't care about benefits then it's the right job for you.

Cons

There is an incredible lack of care for the employee. They froze our pensions and 'replaced' it with a 401k match, then took that away from us a year or two later. They merged our merit raise for good work and cost of living raise into a generalized 1% raise. The insurance benefits are subpar. There is zero incentive for an employee to work harder or to make sure they are doing things that would benefit the company. They do have a bonus program, winshare, but I feel like they would be better off just ending it. It use to be nice, but now it's like a carrot on the end of a stick. It use to get morale up because there was a chance we would get it. Now we get to read about record profits for the company and we get either nothing or a minimal amount. I guess something is better than nothing but it's kind of a slap in the face personally compared to what they use to do. Many of the people in 'leadership' roles (ex. Pressmen, operators) are not leaders at all and actually seem to have a negative effect on work ethic. The HR department doesn't seem to be on the employee's side at all from people I've heard from and from my only time I had to use them.

Pros

A miserable paycheck and strip clubs a short distance away.

Cons

Benefits are horrible, management is a joke (many attend or attended online for-profit universities and it shows), many employees have left due to ridiculous and ever-increasing workloads. R.R. Donnelley is the same CGX/TSSG garbage truck except with new stickers. Truth be told, much better jobs can be found in the Houston area; don't settle for mediocrity.

Pros

Good core group of staff, hard working individuals.

Cons

Very little assistance from management when needed, higher ups show favoritism towards friends and don't give proper credit to all workers.
