      Pros

      If I want to try something different, I'm encouraged to figure it out and make it happen. Tons of autonomy with my role and a team with me who supports me. Great schedule for locals. Hours are reasonable and my commute couldn't be easier. Employee discount is generous.

      Cons

      I think our leadership is committed to innovating and growing. It's a prime opportunity right now to bring change - and it's happening. So no cons, really.

      Pros

      Nice coworkers. Beautiful location in Hingham for the corporate office. Nice cafe. Good deals on surplus merchandise sales Summer Fridays are good. Some flexibility to work for home in few groups but needs to be advocated to other groups where managers still shy away from allowing associates to work from home

      Cons

      The company needs to get it’s act together. Like other reviewers have said, there have been no raises for several years. Most worker bees don’t get bonuses while the management tends to take a nice chunk . The performance evaluation is a sham because there are no rewards for hitting your goals. The health plan keeps getting worse and 401k is pathetic ( paltry 1.5 percent vested over 5 years). The last year has been brutal so wouldn’t expect anything to change this year as well.
