Pros

The company has great resources and data providing a platform of knowledge and growth. The corporate support teams are great! When I had to come to the office on the weekends, I was able to bring my dog.

Cons

Your experience depends where you work and who your leaders are at the division level. The Palm Atlantic Divison leader would elevate his voice and yell daily using profanity, call out employees using them as examples and embarass them in front of peers, tell employees working in the open-concept floor to be quiet even when we were on zoom meetings, make agressive eye contact if someone laughed too loudly, etc creating a hostile environment. Despite everyone wearing nametags, I was referred to as "New Kid" for at least 3 months. Another leader would tell the sales team to "hike up their skirts" to meet sales goals. Vacation was strongly discouraged, especially during the holidays during year-end. If you do have a vacation planned, you might be bribed to not take it...which is interesting because the leaders genuinely showed interest in everyone's families including sharing about their own. As a leader myself, I was told to "poke" one of my direct reports to get them to quit. Manual reports were expected to be filled out and distributed between around 11:30pm on Sunday and 8:30am on Monday after the week's sales were complete. I witnessed multiple people cry during my short time there. If you take a role there, budget for therapy; at least 2 individuals ended up taking leave due to what could be assumed as mental health reasons. Neither returned.

Pros

Was able to do many different jobs and learn a bunch of different departments.

Cons

Management is out of touch with reality. Used to be a great company to work for and they truly cared about their people. It is so unprofessional, micro managed, too many middle managers and no one can make a decision to save their life. The stress, political bs is overwhelming. They spend a ton of money on creating programs and then never get to the users. Everyone they have a new CTO it is major disruption and they always bad mouth the last person that was in the seat. Then they go back to what was done 10 years ago.
