Pros

Founding family (upper management) gives feeling that they truly care about the employees.

Cons

micromanagers -- if they decide they don't like you, your future is toast; management style is old school ... doesn't take input from direct reports.

Thank you for your feedback. We strive to live our Core Values and Guiding Principles every day and are glad to hear that you felt that from upper management. In business you will find that most Managers have their own style and sometimes that style doesn’t mesh with their direct reports. We wish you well in your future endeavors. -Human Resources

Pros

Pay and meeting new people everyday. Everyday is different.

Cons

It's no work/life balance. No one takes responsibility for anything. Company will let you go so fast your head will spin. For no reason on top of that. Get ready to train your replacement.

Pros

There are no pro. The company is horrible especially to African Americans.

Cons

The company structure is horrible. They are very unorganized and Dont pay commision because they figure out ways to say you dont get the money.
