Pros

Job flexibility, and semi-competitive salary.

Cons

This place is a revolving door. It is a great example of a company that over promises things to its employees, and does not deliver. The leadership was not great either. I am not a disgruntled former employee, I would just rather save someone from spending a year or two with this company that they will never get back.

Pros

Initial pay was very attractive but they had to pay well to get top talent to come to the suburbs.

Cons

No raises year after year, which is not communicated to you in the interview process. No flexibility, no work from home opportunities. Processes and thinking very outdated and management is unwilling to change or even entertain that there may be a better way to do something to create efficiencies because they have been doing it the same way for the last 20 years. If you ask staff why they are doing something a certain way, their answer is “because we always have”...they don’t understand what they are doing. Discriminatory unless you look like them. Team building is discouraged, unfortunately upper management does not want to improve the very bad morale. Blatant unfair favoritism for employees that are related to the CEO and CFO. Certain director-level personnel lack the professional knowledge, wisdom & ability to lead...not technically sharp so micromanages silly things. Terrible management that does not know how to lead a team. Forward thinkers are discouraged because they might bring attention to others' incompetence. New ideas or suggestions are shot down instantly. Absolutely zero culture and very unwelcoming to new employees. It's like stepping back in time. Old technology. Outdated software. If you are looking for a progressive company where you will be encouraged to think and be developed, this is not the company for you. There are so many other great companies out there.

Pros

i experienced an evniotment that I will never allow myself to experience again. Lesson learned.

Cons

The service team is treated like dirt compared to production. The young producers talk to veterans of over 30 years as they are the help. Account management is dog eat dog. It's common for everyone to be unhappy and looking for a job elsewhere. Always drama and a cat fight. Pay is low and benefits are lower. My manager was absolutely evil and on a crazy power trip. Her boss did nothing about it even though there were multiple complaints and HR became involved. It's all about who you know and who your friends are. Individuals are overlooked and don't matter.
