Pros

- Those working in non-management positions are usually very helpful and want to do the best for their customers - Good benefits and pay structure - Good training ground for understanding and utilizing LEAN

Cons

- Very few development opportunities and low level of coaching - Churn and burn environment where Sr Managers are more interested in meeting LEAN metrics and covering their rears than actually doing the right things for customers - To quick to eliminate costs by terminate employees under the cover of "restructuring" - Sr Management make decisions in a vacuum and spend too little time talking to end customers and their staff that are dealing with end customers - Very few Sr Managers with industry background and connections

Pros

Pay was good. Industry leader, favorite label of distribution(most years)

Cons

Uncommunicative, out of touch managers. No real idea of what is happening at street level. Underhanded corporate minions that spread untruths. Growth by acquisition, with little internal product development or integration strategy. A whiff of corporate induced layoff fears for acquired companies. Truly a dark place to work, every bad element of big company culture lives here. Talk to people on the inside before spending anytime working here or for any of the acquisiion companies.
