Pros

ESOP, Medical Benefits, Job Security

Cons

Everything else, literally everything else. This company used to put their employees first and they paid them well enough to support a family on a single income, but no longer. Basically it's WalCo/WinMart. They've forgotten what set us apart from everyone else and what made this company so successful. There is no longer any loyalty to employees, even less for the long-term ones, we're all replaceable cogs in a giant clock. For a company that spends so much time talking about being Employee Owned, it literally means nothing at the end of the day.

Pros

Great coworkers and managers. The products are great and I loved that I was able to offer great customer service. Moving up and around in the company is easy, positions are always opening up because the company continues to expand. They also have an employee share program

Cons

The hours can be sketchy, depending on the department you're in. Some weeks can be higher than others. The workload is also heavy and the expectations are high but manageable.
