Pros

Ok pay, benefits, tuition reimbursement. Some room for advancement. I started at call center and advanced to corporate. Once a corporate employee they have core hours where u can pick if you want to work between 7 and 9 and just have to do your 8 hours.

Cons

High turn over. Company is very cheap and dont value their employees. They would rather hire someone new and pay them less then to develop you. Heard of people being walked out the door for reasons that didnt make sense and those people received unemployment. im constantly scared of loosing my job because if a new manager comes in and they dont like you they will find a way.

Pros

Paycheck. It is under market by 15%...but it doesn't bounce. This is a plus. The secret police that is called HR needs to have a revamp at the Director level and one step below.

Cons

No matter what your background may be, the officers of the company will interrupt you during a presentation and not LISTEN to what you know inside and out. Employees certainly appreciate the fact that you have tenure and you have paid your dues. However, you are not that smart and don't always have all the answers. Operations officers should be understand this already. Stop interrupting and listen. I think there is a new talent planning or management program here (home grown) that addresses your need to be present and listen/engage/pay attention.

Cons

- Poor benefits - No growth opportunity for women with very few women in leadership roles - Executives don't exemplify the same behaviors they demand from employees - Executives often raise their voice to employees - Executives make unrealistic requests without providing the necessary support - Poor communication and leadership
