Pros

The company provides industry standard compensation.

Cons

The legacy of Harrison and Wallace is gone. They would be devastated in the way the company has evolved, and the current operation of the company. There have been several major directional changes by CEO's in the last few years, Each bring in their own employees into key roles, who bring in their employees, all at the expense of promoting from within., That is understandable to a point but a virtual blacklisting of long term employees is not right. Turfing them to make room is worse. A major purge is underway in this last round. You can earn loyalty, but you cannot buy it off of the street.

Pros

Free fried food at headquarters. Nice catered lunches you can mooch off of. Fridge full of free soda.

Cons

Does not value low level employees. Was told that since I was not a full time worker I could not use the coffee machine. Management spends thousands on shiny new office toys, but can't afford to pay a living wage.

Pros

Some good people in the business

Cons

Sr leadership is all over the place...lack strategy. Senior HR leadership at corporate level is incompetent at best. Lack of systems and processes. Company as a whole has taken a turn for the worse in last two years and now has gone into major cost cutting.
