Pros

There is always work to do. Day, night, holidays, vacations, time off and in spite of your so called "back up". Oh and if you salary forget about an adjust in pay for the 24/7days

Cons

Promotions occurs with the same people in management always. This company has a thousand focuses but they are not EXPERTS in any of them. Training is lack luster and not direct, Supervisors only care about bonuses and are willing to let go of long term employees to get it. Nepotism is rampant but no one in Client services will speak up because they are afraid to loss there jobs or be shot down by the bully's in the office. Employees are told to keep bonuses secret from others that work in "like" departments. You will only move up if your connected, look the part and behave badly to others.

Pros

Consistent work. Nowhere to go in the company, you have to know somebody who knows somebody to advance.

Cons

Management knows nothing about being a good manager. They don't care about you or your family.

Poor attention to holding people accountable; still good ole' boys network in the field.

Pros

Great company with many successes and a sense of vision. Multiple opportunities for employees to grow with the company, if you are willing to move outside your state.

Cons

Leadership blindly trusting. Need to ask more questions and check into things. Just because someone says a situation never happened does not mean this is the truth. When people complain, there is usually a reason and management does not check into it. I am so surprised at the lying that occurs and management believes them because they keep the costs down. Plant quickly cleans up when the managers come to visit. We know better what goes on behind the scenes. Lost confidence in this company.
