Pros

Can have flexible scheduling for appointments, good basic insurance

Cons

Work is fine, that is usually never the problem. Upper management does not care about the people at the bottom who do the work. Layoffs after layoffs as the teams get smaller and everything goes overseas. They will let go of anyone, even those 30+ years with the company and screw you on payouts that you earned with little to no communication at the end. No growth opportunities, they want the new and AI driven stuff to come first.. unfortunately they are about 10 years too late on this endeavor with Iridio.

Pros

If you have a good management team looking out for you, it's decent enough. Working remote is a huge pro. Anything good I have to say is not for RRD, it's for my team from Williams Lea.

Cons

(Former Williams Lea) Since RRD acquired us, all the admin stuff has rapidly declined in quality. It's abundantly clear that RRD does whatever is the cheapest for them. Our benefits package significantly worsened. No more shift differential, leftover PTO no longer carries over to the next year, and the new insurance options are complete crap.
