Pros

Decent Benefits and the hours were ok.

Cons

Middle management was horrific and upper management didn't care to help. Basically it was their way or the highway even if a new way was more efficient. They don't really care about the employees. They don't reward hard work or outside of the box thinking. They don't punish people even after multiple complaints. Pay was low for what was expected of you. Make any mistakes and you will be punished no matter how small they were.

Pros

The pay and benefits are good. Location is in the city of Chicago which is rare.

Cons

Terrible culture, built on fear. Micromanagement at its finest. Ownership is involved in far too many of the details and decision making is stagnated waiting on the owner to make a decision. Employees are not empowered to make decisions. Completely resistant to change or new ideas.
