Pros

If you are interested in restoring vintage automobiles, or modifying any automobiles, Summit carries an amazing array of products. Their employee discount is quite good.

Cons

Almost too many cons to list. Management is very close-minded, ignorant, and arrogant. They refuse to acknowledge legitimate concerns about worker safety, malfunctioning production equipment, and are often very disrespectful to employees. Managers and supervisors are not concerned with facts, but rather, each others' opinions. Employees are often told, of their manager's expectations, well after those expectations are not met...not before. Logic, common sense, and mutual-respect do not exist within the walls of these distribution centers.

Pros

This company has few pros other than well kept facilities. The perks they list in thier employment ads are mainly bait for prospective employees and eyewash for the general public. Your most valuable asset needs to be an aptitude for office politics.

Cons

The cons are many and varied, but can mostly be traced to upper management. They place little or no value on tenure or technical knowledge of the products they sell. Any position that does not require a degree or physical labor is viewed as "a hobby job"and therefore not deserving of respect or competative pay. Commission for the sales force is dismally low compared to other sales jobs and thier method of calculating it is a well guarded secret. I would consider working there only as a stop-gap until more realistic employment is offered elsewhere. Once they've gotten their training investment out of you, you become a target for termination. Also, gray hair is definately not an asset here.
