Private company - no stock options for higher level positions Old Boy Network - few people get promoted into management positions unless in network or minority Promotional opportunities limited by having to move to Connecticut for rotation prior to being considered for additional opportunities and then no guarantee Health Benefits average Very conservative - difficult if you are in Sales - afraid of being sued so much that legal runs the sales operation Upper management poor - Regional Directors do not know how to motivate and some are not analytical or strategic - got their positions because they had been there long enough or a woman was needed as a figurehead
