Just a joke

Pros

The people that you meet of course, because most have the same views as you do about the company. Also the company supports Cystic Fibrosis, and sponsors a family which is wonderful.

Cons

The biggest downside is the level of disrespect and sexist behavior that is dished out from management. If you are a woman be prepared to be treated as if you are beneath everyone else, unless you are a beauty queen then you get wine and dined for a month, and have a party thrown for you while others can barely get what they deserve. Upper management acts as if they are afraid of the owner, but on the other hand use him as an excuse at every occasion possible. A lot of the people in higher positions are men, and female managers get treated as if they have no say so, and are a joke, and get laughed at by their superiors. Field Operations Managers come from competitors like Xerox, or Ricoh because they can get a higher salary, and better benefits then someone who has worked for the company for 5+ years.

Poor compensation--worse benefits

Pros

You can get hired and learn to be a manager. If the client likes you, you're safe from anything happening.

Cons

Pay is less than others offer. There are no benefits. The insurance is too expensive for anyone to buy. I had to get Obamacare. Company doesn't offer 401k matches. The CEO emails everyone talking about how great the company is doing, but he doesn't invest a single cent in keeping his employees.

Pros

the pay wasn't too bad, CEO sent out regular emails which was nice

Cons

Where to begin? Insurance was AWFUL, vacation pay/holiday pay is a joke, management is a joke (mine was anyway), no communication from upper management nor do they seem to care. They'd come to the site just to say they were there, sit in conference rooms for an hour and do other work, then leave. Never felt as if my manager listened to me or cared what I had to say. Concerns were brushed under the table and never addressed. Manager called/emailed at all hours of day (7 days a week) for no good reason and would ask my opinion and then do the opposite. I could not get away from this company quick enough!
