Pros

Great pay and benefits. Nice work environment. Friendly co-workers and lower management. Very flexible with schedule.

Cons

Constant never ending changes. Since first merger brought in new systems that set us back 10-15yrs. Takes longer and more complicated order entry. Need better raises. Health Care-price going up and covering less Web based training...need more one on one classroom training. Graded on score cards like school kids. New Soft phones--are not working. Can't get thru to other centers half the time to transfer, or if you do you hang up on one or both parties. Not a friendly system. Of course, I guess it goes with the order entry system.

Pros

work life balance, excellent time off so long as manager doesn’t micromanage/track and limit FTO, nice people, leadership has turned the business around.

Cons

No pay raises even with great performance review (5years with zero raise) No career growth/progression - been on a high-performing team for 5 years and not one person on the team has been progressed or promoted during that time. Little opportunity for career advancement and growth New jobs within the company are going to external hires, not much grwoth for current employees
