Pros

Great team members to work with. Some individuals understand the concept of creating a great customer experience and want to provide excellent customer experience.

Cons

Company decided to cut PTO for employees in order to increase revenue for the company. Minimum to zero merit increases for the past 4 years. Company stresses to give more to receive more, that is NOT the case. Big bonuses for the CEO, VPs, Directors & dividends to the Shareholders in order to keep them satisfied.

Pros

Good pay, great benefits, great people to work with, boss is great, etc.

Cons

Company is undergoing transformation, so it's a bit chaotic. Have to work with old stuff and new stuff at the same time. Hopefully that will change as we transform further.
