Pros

Good products - different sales forces for different products, so lots of opportunity for sales people. Products have a good reputation. Market leader or near-leader in many categories.

Cons

Not a customer or market focused company. Need more sales support staff. Sales people are asked to do a lot of tasks that pull them out of the field. It's easily a 60+ hour a week place to work if you are in sales.

Pros

you get a free electric toothbrush. 401K plan with matching They buy out companies to drive up the stock. To quote one of the Senior CEO as he walked out of our office door, "Keep our stock holders happy!" I guess that's how he say thank you, good job or good bye.

Cons

They make promises they can't keep. They closed down Lightolier's Fontana factory, which is the only one that's actually making money. But lets "Keep our stock holders happy!" cuz the workers seem to be nothing to them. They like to keep incompetent managers and layoff all the ones who actually do their job and done it well. 401K plan has a very long 100% vesting period

Great work atmosphere, not great pay or benefits

Pros

The atmosphere is a nice place to work. Nice employees, nice building. No paid time off, never hired on full time.

Cons

The work is very redundant, you make a lot of telephone calls. Not much support from upper level management, they will keep you as a temp forever.
