I'm in my early 40's and feel like I'm ready to retire...

Pros

Great work/life balance. Can work from home. Little to no oversight by my supervisor...I go months without speaking to her. (knock, knock) never hear of layoffs. Work load is usually light. Supervisors and senior management in my department are really nice people who I would enjoy putting my best food forward for if everything else in the company wasn't so horrendous.

Cons

No career progression. No career path. No employee feed back. No 401K match. Dental plan costs $1,000 a year. Health insurance kicks in AFTER you meet a $6,500 deductible. Premiums went up 37% last year. Universal 1% annual raises. Annual bonuses are $300 across the entire company. Corporate morale is horrendous. No parties, happy hour, company sponsored events, etc. The only corporate correspond sent are about occupational safety (I have a desk job) or some HR-sponsored "get fit" campaigns. No allotted sick days. Takes FOREVER to get anything done and way too much red tape to pass through.

Pros

Good for getting job experience to go elsewhere.

Cons

Manager bullied and belittled employees and even though it was brought to HR's attention nothing was done. RRD expectation was that work came first before anything else. Benefits were expensive and didn't cover much, no 401K match. Favoritism was used throughout the facility for career advancement and learning opportunities. I would definitely not recommend anyone to work for RRD.

Pros

Can't think of any. Seriously, there aren't any pros with this company unless you're masochistic.

Cons

Very hostile work enviroment. You have to join a clique. Told one week of training would be provided, and didn't receive any training. All the training and jobs are being outsourced to Chennai, India. Management lies to you when they hire you, and lays off when group in India is fully staffed for specific client. Employee turnover rate is higher than a fast food restuarant. This company doesn't follow state labor laws. HR is a joke. I'd give this company a negative five star rating if this website allowed for it.
