Pros

Pretty solid benefits package that requires a copay, has a good incentive program during prosperous times. Team atmosphere and strong team indoctrination.

Cons

At the onset a seamingly efficient running company. The undercurrent is that of distrust and fear, due to not working long hours at least 50-60 hors per week, and not quite fitting into the corporate mold. If you don't fit the mold you will find yourself forced out. Some of the upper managers have a throwback management style that reminds one of the 50's-60's. Kind of a Good Ole Boy attitude. The Sales Dept Senior Mgt seems to have a propensity to set people up for failure, and will allow borderline bad judgement calls to take place, after they give complete approval, only to turn around and reprimand stating they never gave permission. The same figure head is very creative at conjuring up excuses for writeups and then quietly forcing signatures for fear of losing job if non complient. One word- Shady.
