Pros

A lot of good people to work with

Cons

preaches life balance but there isn't any except for management and sales........years without raises.......claims no money then annually would spend buying up companies right before annual reviews are due.................sorry no money left. Way too top heavy in VP's- how many you really need? Constantly lays off in the DC and programming depts. then rehires new temps as demand dictates. Loses trained people and again spends a fortune to late too train because the order volume already hit. Not interested in keeping trained experienced people during business downturn cycles. Hiring wage for entry level is too low for what is expected of people. Programming requires a different (higher) skill set than the DC operators...starting pay should be a buck higher. Theres Horrible order forecasting..................no method to check necessary equipment, supplies, and people before sales commits it to customer. Very little advancement possible in logistics..

Pros

Its a job. Not an adventure................

Cons

Medical and dental insurance is way too expensive for families. Company makes record profits but doesnt reward employees for the job done. Warehouse and programming operators pay is not a liveable wage. Company keeps buying competitors but claims broke - no raises. When there are raises theyre not worth the paperwork and time to do..........Costs more to administer. Performance reviews must meet a bell curve. Therefore employees are not measured and ranked/rewarded on their actual individual performance.HR and uper management makes sup's and mgr's lower scores every EPR. Reno HR has even lowered scores after supervisors submit with discussion after the fact which is pointless since theyre already turned into corp.Company doesnt care about its people.,,,,,,,will be released 1 day over FMLA even if DR still has you not ready to return. Your length of employment doesnt matter...........youre out! Too much over paid P4 management not enough Sups., Leads, and operators. Management needs to be production oriented and not engineering.
