Pros

Lots of Vendor reward trips and spiff programs if you are in sales

Cons

They will use you and abuse you as long as they think they can legally get away with it. Working lots of overtime punched off the clock. Then, when you gain some seniority they get rid of you because you dare to use your accrued vacation time! They do not valve experience and instead like to train train train the youth. Every one knows this its the talk of the town.

Pros

None, I would say remote work but it’s very toxic.

Cons

Poor leadership (manager and director), poor communication, poor training, unrealistic m expectations, micromanagement, no SOPs, lack of structure, FLSA violations, no upfront disclosure of what role is, stingy management. People outside of HR are great. In HR? They’re happy to lay people off and talk about it so casually during meetings. Think “it’s our yearly layoffs” and joking about catching people “slipping”. No opportunities for growth despite saying there was during interviews. Interview and reality are worlds apart. No diversity. Severe control issues. No new people have been hired in over 3 years yet multiple people have left so people are burnout. One person handles all of one process alone and management thinks that’s ok. For reference the same process takes 10-11 associates in the same sized org. I can go on. Stay away!!!
