Pros

Friendly people. Great place to cut your teeth and learn the business.

Cons

Compensation is no where near the industry average although they will tell you it is but not show their research or tell you where they got their info. In the more than 10 years I worked for the company I had 12 different supervisors and only received 5 pay raises. The Northern operating group is based in Minnesota. That being said the cost of living and state taxes take the majority of your pay and the company does not believe in cost of living allowances. Management cannot be trusted because they are only worried about their own future and the good supervisors are rare or do not last long in a supervisor position. MBM and the "BUZZ" words around it are used as leverage points but not truly followed by the employees or management that use them.

Pros

Good insurance. The Atlanta office was more flexible with remote/hybrid work

Cons

The politics. People devalue teammates. Constantly changing direction so no meaningful impact can be made. Not a lot of diversity. If you don’t ask how someone’s kids are, you get complaints that you’re cold and difficult. Got there and a reorg killed the reason I was hired and was never provided with any sort of hope of growth opportunities.
