Pros

good benefits, i had flexible wrk hours, vacation was 3 weeks prorated, they put on great lunches for many reasons

Cons

no training materials were in place when i started, they expected me to document all of the processes even for depts i didnt work in, the reports i was trained on were used for 5 months, then they gave me 3 more to work through without training for 5 months...impossible expectations of a new employee, no conceren for personal life, i had to work 10-20 overtime every week

Pros

Great culture and truly amazing coworkers. Strong company history of success with iconic brands.

Cons

The company is going through a super tough season. Lots of jobs being moved offshore and it feels like nonstop restructuring / job loss. Job security feels very tenuous and morale is low.
