Pros

Meeting with the union members to deliver their benefits.

Cons

The office atmosphere is horrible and negative. There is a black cloud in the office and its called Dorian Oldham. He is extremely negative, believes in fear-based tactics to get people to work harder, always threatening to fire people, doesn't have a family of his own so he doesn't relate to those who do (therefore you are seen as lazy if you need time off for family events, appointments for your kids, etc). Dorian rarely talks to people in the office unless they are in management or making him a lot of money. The office turned into a giant frat boy atmosphere too. Unless you constantly suck up to Dorian your job is in jeopardy. They have a HUGE turn-around because the office is very toxic. Even managers are trained to spy on their trainees and create drama where drama is not needed. 100% commission makes it very difficult to feed your family. Definitely feast or famine.

Cons

For the CAREER MINDED, self motivated, passionate, individual who wants to be paid what their worth, there are truly no cons that come to mind. The management staff do a great job about being SELECTIVE and hiring applicants who have shown and proven that they will embrace the culture at Oldham Midwest. If you aren't willing to embrace the culture at Oldham Midwest (Passion, Accountability, Work Ethic), then perhaps this is not the best fit for you.
