Pros

Casual work environment, nice people, interesting work.

Cons

Being a family business, they don't treat everyone the same. Family members and people who have been there for many years get their pick of the material and have 3 times the moneymaking potential a new employee has. Trying to get new material out of them is impossible. If a seasoned vet -- who has more magazines than they can ever work -- asks for a new publication, they will get preference over a new employee.

Pros

Great pay, great hours, friendly people, ok training.

Cons

Very high pressure to sell to customers that were listed in the news papers by cold calling. You were a number to them, if you didn't produce they would replace you. Pilot new age departments don't last long there , if it doesn't product drastically it gets shut down by the CEO and people lose their jobs or get forced to go into sales like what happened to me.
