Pros

First is the Culture, we work as a Team here but in working as a team you must be accountable and a good team member. we also do have a "family' oriented culture which is emphasized by all the group events we have, Family fun days, team building, etc. the Tools are provided for your success and growth , but you must use them and DO THE WORK its ultimately up to the individual to learn and grow personally and professionally. AB & SH will make you think and will empower you to lead, but they will not give you all the answers , hence the company books that are required to read. Benefits are outstanding, my wife needed major medical help with a double organ failure and heath insurance covered completely. also relocation was completely covered and a down payment for a home was provided with no repayment if you stayed on for 5 years. PTO ( personal time off ) is Generous in 9 yrs. I have never used all my yearly PTO. Learning events are encouraged and you can choose ones to attend. The boss is never looking over your shoulder as they respect your integrity. if you feel married to the company it is because you want to be, not because your forced. best company I've ever worked for. You don't get asked to leave unless there is a reason, a big reason, or you quit. even then they do an exit interview so they can find out how the company failed you. who does that?

Cons

Every company has cons, and maybe bothersome idiosyncrasies. if you don't have the core values in your heart you will not like this job.

Pros

the people, benefits are descent, 401k match, flexible schedule. We are treated more like family and management takes into consideration your personal life and supports family first.

Cons

sick time isn't great, only 2-3 days you get, people gossip a lot. The company has been acquired by Alpha Guardian aka Cannon Safes and things are changing. I don't see good things happening I see lots of people losing their job because they probably will move the Wauconda manufacturing to Mexico. Pay raises are not negotiable even if you are "up to par" on your annual review. I got the highest grade yet they did not give me the highest pay raise, that I qualified for. I thought that was not fair but I know my boss fought for what I did get. No bonuses.
