Pros

Good Brands Respected In the Trade Good benefits If You Work At Corporate, daycare, sports area. Company store, female friendly

Cons

Too much emphasis on hiring minorities and gays. Long history of getting rid of employees once they reach early 50's Performance is more linked to politics than productivity. Management cannot be trusted, they only care about themselves. The perfect employee would be a black female lesbian with one leg, preferably a dwarf. That would satisfy all the political checkboxes they look for.

Pros

You will not be bothered by people talking to you, benefits seem okay.

Cons

Don’t expect to be trained on anything. Management will expect you to figure things out on your own, request your own accesses and figure out what you need without any guidance. They’ll send people to you for questions on how to do stuff within your first couple days, not having taught you how to do those things.
