Pros

- Competitive Salary - Wellness payment for families - Strong company market share presence - Large multinational corporation presence

Cons

- Terrible management. Management wants to micromanage you to oblivion. - Toxic work environment. Your team lead will micromanage you; they will critique your every move you make, tell you 'it's ok' but then will throw you to the wolves every chance they get. You will be gaslighted by your team lead. - Too many complex processes that limit your ability to get any actual work done. - Management only care about themselves and their 'friends' within the company. - If you are not a 'Territory Manager' you will not be appreciated at the company. - Inside Sales Representatives are disrespected at the company and are treated like customer service representatives. - Constant problems with supply and backorders. - Constant problems with recalls of products. - No clear leadership or direction. - No work / life balance. You will be given an enormous amount of work, expected to achieve unrealistic AOP targets, and it won't matter if you achieved AOP one quarter. As soon as you don't achieve AOP another quarter, you will be placed on notice and/or a performance plan. You will be expected to work long hours. You will need to work long hours to achieve your unrealistic AOP targets.

Pros

The best company I’ve ever worked for.

Cons

Really can’t think of many. It’s heavily matrixed but that’s to be expected.

Pros

There are many non-traditional benefits that help with work life balance. The company’s brand and global reach are undeniable and reinforce the company’s compelling Mission.

Cons

People are expected to deliver above-average results with below-average processes. The stock’s performance has earned this pressure, but there is no obvious, quick path to improvement. Your experience in that corporate environment will depend on your supervisor either being a leader or a manager.
