      Pros

      Relatively large, private cubicles. Commission was predictable.

      Cons

      Management is not helpful whatsoever. Everything is a numbers game. Be ready to manipulate the system in order to achieve the numbers they want you to.

      Current business model is a career-killing disaster.

      Business outlook

      Pros

      It's a paycheck. No real accountability. Just another day at 'The Office'. Conney Safety is a story akin to that of Black Beauty, where it’s been sold to a couple of really bad owners over the course of the last decade or so. And while Conney Safety was a force to be reckoned with 20+ years ago, its current state is merely that of a status quo cash cow that has been milked for all it’s worth and appears to have been put out to pasture, awaiting its final ride to the stockyard. To be fair, there are some really smart, dedicated people still working there who know health and safety. But without a sustainable business model that includes robust, fully integrated enterprise-wide databases, and workflow solutions that are supported by business professionals who have the expertise to drive programmatic results, I suspect Conney Safety is a candidate to either be absorbed entirely by parent company and operate under the parent company's name, or be written off as a business loss within the next several years.

      Cons

      At a departmental level: If you are a career-minded marketing professional, be sure to ask about available resources and best practices, and how the department measures e-commerce and database conversions of its lead gen strategy, in addition to current pipeline data to quantify annual marketing spend from stakeholders. At an organizational level: • Siloed work environment (even within a department) and fragmented workflow solutions • Outdated, proprietary systems and platforms for reporting • Lack of synergy between sales and marketing depts, each with high turnover • Minimal and slow IT bandwidth to support operations • Peter Principle style role filling • Design-by-committee meetings with no clear outcomes that drive results • The white elephant in the room munches grass in the background, while band-aid fixes triage the bleeding. • Status quo environment with lots of busy work and micro-managing • Mold, mouse turds, and poor plumbing (if you work in the lower level)
