Pros

Challenging work duties, great clientele, intelligent co-workers, excellent company communication! SmithBucklin has allowed me to come to work and feel challenged everyday. I love the fast paced environment and working with all the amazing association that motivate me in so many different ways!

Cons

If you enjoy a fast paced environment where you will be challenged, there aren't many cons in my opinion.

Pros

- Travel is great if you like to visit different cities - Some benefits are okay. - Depending on your department, you get some room to be a little creative and resourceful.

Cons

-You'll feel drained! They will work you until they can't work you any more. Especially if they move you from hourly to salaried. Salaried is just another word for work for overtime you never get a chance to take. - There's a lot of clique mentality here. A lot like high school. From the low levels and sometimes through management. - Someone said the people here are very smart, I think the correct word is opportunistic. You get ahead better if you cozy up with the right people and step on a lot of heads attempting to climb your way to the top. -You'll always find yourself fighting for what's right for the client by defending your decision to use certain vendors. Especially if your manager has a friend who wants the SB's business. They'll work hard to get rid of a great vendor just to slip their best friend's less than grea/shoddy business in the door. - Don't expect them to understand or recognize MLK Jr. day. Greek orthodox holidays, yes! MLK day, no! If you ask why, they'll option you to use your vacation time to celebrate on your own. -Very corporate and everyone is divided with no understanding how each division needs to work and understand each other to run harmoniously.
