Pros

Generally, fellow coworkers can be kind. About 15-20% of the people I work with are competent, kind, and willing to work.

Cons

Horrible management and serious lack of direction. Most people have gotten where they are due to tenure and not ability. There is severe favoritism for those that are tenured. Politically conservative top leadership will let you know their stance most all-hands meetings. Incredibly toxic positivity rampant in the company (I.e. “Jane stayed up all night to get this done, let’s celebrate Jane!” or the very frequent “We’re a family”). Rampant misogyny, for example, asking female staff to be note takers in meetings that they should be participating in, etc.

Pros

Good benefits. Can't think of any other.

Cons

Poor pay, the lowest paying company in the PEO industry. District Managers are awful, the ones I had. Regional Manager is less than supportive and more interested in micromangement. In my office, there is lack of support from District Manager and Regional Manager. I have witnessed first hand in a few areas District managers going on ride alongs, helping BPAs target businesses. It's an HR company that preaches work culture, but does not practice what it preaches. Turnover is higher than they like to admit, due to the nature of the job and appalling pay structure. Wear and tear of personal vehicle- you're not reimbursed mileage, or given vehicle allowance. You get an Amex card with less than $400 monthly, that is meant to cover gas (even with the current has prices), oil change, lunches, networking events. The amount itself is a joke, usually you run out of funds after the first week or 2 of each month and you're formed to use your own funds. Regional manager blamed entire team for people that got laid off, afterwards threatened people's jobs. When investors wanted more money, there were massive layoffs. Some staff were promised roles within the company, but of course they didn't keep their end of the bargain. I was given the most useless RM and DM. When I was hired, my district manager told a few lies and tricked me into accepting the position.
