Pros

Good Benefits, location and hours of operation.

Cons

Man isn't what Edward or Fredrick envision. When Man was created, they believed in their employees and they always came first. Anyone who truly knew the Founding Fathers would have kept the tradition. First came the employee, before money and this is why it was so successful all the way around years ago. Management today has little to no knowledge of the day to day business, its more of a wing it situation. Key point personnel that hold the title of management, has totally no clue of what or how to run their department. There is a major financial impact; due to employee's lack of due diligence, but this derives from lazy managers who do not get involved in the business. I’ve been with Man for the past 4 years, I have witnessed lazy managers, lazy employees, employees that don’t care and still on board, and accountability of errors not taken serious. We even have a new H.R. in place; since this happened thing’s have gotten worse. H.R. in the Miami office looks the other way and fails to truly get involve in any internal matters. You are basically on your own. No one trusts H.R., I wouldn't it and I have a million one complaints. I need my job and I can’t afford to make waves.
