      Disappointing Fall of a Giant

      Pros

      A few veterans left with lots of institutional knowledge and focus on customer service.

      Cons

      New management who ignore the voices of the long tenured employees. Self-serving executives with short- versus long-term perspectives on how to turn the ship around to regain market share. Sad end to a company that was once an industry leader. Gary Pruitt's imprint is long gone. He always said if you take care of the employees, they'll take care of the customers. If the customers are taken care of, the shareholders will be taken care of. That philosophy has been replaced with take care of the executive and screw the rest.

      Coworkers are great, management needs a complete overhaul.

      Pros

      Pay is decent. There are some great lower level managers. Hours are good. That's really about all though.

      Cons

      No room for advancement, no career growth advice. Favoritism runs rampant, and promotions are based on who likes you, not based off of performance. Upper management is completely out of touch with its employees. Most of management micromanages to the nth degree.
