Pros

A few good people here. Company has a new CEO now.

Cons

Managers practice cronyism and fraternization. Benefits are mediocre. I now work for a smaller company in the same town (Fremont) with better pay and benefits. Much of the office furniture and computer equipment is old. I worked with two laptops one for development (which was purchased rebuilt and didn't work properly) and my work computer (over 6 years old, dented and would not close completely). If you are in good with a manager you'll do well with training and advancement. If not, good luck. If you're harassed by another employee or manager (bullying, hostile work environment) there is very little confidentiality and little to no support from HR.

Pros

I just completed my 20th year at Gerber Life and look forward to the next 20. Too many Pros to list so will summarize: supportive leadership team, opportunity for growth and career advancement, contributing to an organization that truly cares for it's customers and being there for them during difficult times. Supportive (and encouraged) work-life balance.

Cons

no cons to list! find an entry point and build your career at Gerber Life.

Pros

User friendly system. Easy to navigate.

Cons

Bait and switch hiring process. Blind trust that daily stats (if/when provided) are correct. Considering stats determine pay, bonus, employment.. this is a huge con.
