Pros

Decent pay, good benefits. Outside plant staff (drivers & techs) were hard working. Safety focused. Phone training for office staff was useful and effective.

Cons

Micromanaged to death by region management team. Region distribution center increased delivery runouts by 200% in multiple markets which in turn increased customer complaints. High market pricing also increased customer complaints, although that had improved over the past 24 months. Unreliable computer systems frustrate both employees and customers. No raises for multiple years. Minimal input on annual budget - numbers just backed into.

Pros

Not one to report, the worst place I've ever worked.

Cons

Manager was hired at a discounted rate based on the level of abuse and mismanagement. A "0" for personality and managing people. Enabled by the company who ultimately hired this individual.
