Pros

Car, cell phone, paychecks that surprisingly don't bounce, free business cards, small and ineffective expense account that allows you to buy one person lunch per month.

Cons

Massive employee turnover, surprised they don't issue digital name tags as a cost saving measure. Constant cutbacks, smaller car, more restrictions, lower pay, lower commissions, more work, more paperwork in the name of accountability. Management is delusional thinking that paying $30-40k per year is 'industry standard'. Constant unrealistic expectations of 20-30 percent growth in recessionary economy. Don't offer products customers want and what we do offer is double, triple or more the price from competition. Management's attitude towards employees is anybody can do your job and you are easily replaced. Lots of meaningless red tape to get simple things done. Very demotivating working environment. Deceptive practices towards customers, and towards you as an employee. They use your relationship with your customer to push overpriced products on customers, which makes you look like a thief in the eyes of your customer. Selling the most expensive product in the industry requires skills and abilities which Wurth is unwilling to pay for.

Pros

Great size company. Not too big to be overly corporate but not too small to grow your career. However for higher management positions they seem like they hire outside the organization a lot.

Cons

Wurth was great for a long time but had poor performance and it seemed like there was a over correction to drive employees to success (flexibility removed, bonuses removed). Felt like a punishment. Many people left.
