Pros

Reliable employment, M-F schedule, dependable paychek

Cons

I worked in accounting during my time there and they have a definite problem with management. Some of the managers lack professionalism, and will go out of their way to make an employee feel like an outsider. They will treat employees differently based on their personal feelings and nothing to do with the work of the employee. This is one reason why they have such a turnover in accounting. Also their PTO package is seriously lacking, you only get 5 days of PTO time the first year you are there. That is for vacation and sick, the only offer 7 holidays a year.

Pros

Pay is decent for those of us who have built a large enough customer base over the years.

Cons

Commission rate cuts the last five consecutive years. No path for advancement. Poor management. Since 2021, every change they have made that I have seen is designed to keep the stock price as high as possible - which has been stagnant for 10+ years. Customers and employees come last.
