Pros

Good resume-builder, invaluable training and expansion of skills/programs. Loved the chance to review new products from vendors and the test kitchen was great!

Cons

Long hours, stress stress stress!! Constantly being bombarded with report after report to review left little time to get your buying done for the day. Constant changing of categories and responsibilities did not allow for any specialization. High turnover in management, poorly run division led to layoffs in the past couple of years.

Pros

401k is good Benefits got more affordable

Cons

The biggest con is what must these big companies fail to focus on. Money. If to ask, even if you document measurable results ,that i spent a long time composing. You are told that other mechanics get the same or around the same pay. Then say no. Going the extra mile everyday, doesn't get you anything . Yes it's pay. We start a little better than market. But don't go up from there. Yes not right. Not we cannot get any overtime to make up for the lack of raise . It forces good mechanics out . Also they focus way to much on irrelevant things like dei etc .it should be the work you do not what you look like.
