Pros

I am a middle aged person in decent health and the health insurance is adequate for me.

Cons

The company has been engaging in many cost cutting efforts, including making a salaried worker work 6:30 am-5:00 pm and sometimes weekends. They got rid of perks like bagels and coffee. You will have to work the day after 4th of July and on friday, even for an office position. They will barely train you and there is no clear path for advancement. We once had a meeting because someone complained over the water cooler that they were forced to work 16 hours in one weekend doing menial data entry that was unrelated to the employees job. The employee was salaried. They are currently buying out employees and I fear there will be layoffs.

Pros

Huge office space and freedom to work independently in break rooms instead of being stuck at a desk. They have many opportunities for growth but the high paying roles are salaried and are paid once a month instead of biweekly. Overall a great company with good benefits

Cons

Lower pay than normal for the work

Pros

Stable company with strong financial backing and deep pockets. Solid commission opportunities once you build a strong client base. Certain regions and business groups are willing to invest in and support business growth.

Cons

Some regions are under constant pressure to cut costs, making it increasingly difficult to service customers effectively and grow the business. Management is often absent and lacks understanding of the day-to-day realities of running such a lean operation. Overall talent quality has been declining, and the management compensation and bonus structure frequently drives irrational decision-making.
