Pros

Good pay and time off

Cons

Poor project planning. Very little research and documentation prior to development. Lots of rework. Very little personal growth once you're pegged for a position. Plan to do the same thing for your entire career.

Pros

I have worked and continue to work for Sentry over the past 40+ years and can't say enough about what a great company Sentry is. They have a competitive wage and benefit package. Sentry and the associates contribute greatly to the community. I am very proud to say that I'm a longstanding Sentry associate.

Cons

My only wish is that the health insurance currently offered now (Anthem BC/BS) was as good a plan as we had many years ago when Security Health was offered. I do, however, understand that things have to change to keep premiums at an affordable level.
