          Pros

          Jon stability is great. People tend to stay with the company for years, even decades. Work/life balance can be excellent in some positions.

          Cons

          While I started in an entry level position, it was with the expectations I would transition to something bigger. I was over qualified but needed job stability. Six years later, I'm "stuck" in my position because I'm "so good" at what I do.

              Pros

              Work/life balance and pro employee mentality. Great culture! Executives are not snobby.

              Cons

              It’s a growing company so it lacks resources but it’s on its way!

                    Pros

                    The packaged gas industry is stable and Airgas is the industry leader. Benefits are acceptable and job security is above average.

                    Cons

                    Compensation is below industry average compared to other major gas companies and Airgas historically runs very lean and subsequently the work/life balance suffers.

                      Pros

                      There are none for this department.

                      Cons

                      The Cash Application department is in a continual state of flux. Job descriptions/duties are constantly changing. Training is non-existent but you’re still expected to hit your “numbers”. If you’re not hitting your numbers you’re put on a performance improvement plan which basically is 'pass or you're fired'. Keep in mind, your job changes every time the wind blows. Unlike Disney World, this is the Unhappiest place on earth. If you apply to either the cash application or collection dept I feel sorry for you. I could go on but it’s just something you have experience to believe Work/Life balance is good in other departments but not this one. OT is mandatory and is called that day or with one day advanced warning.

                        Cons

                        Technology used is little outdated in some areas - but good in others Pay is not competitive and annual raises are the same across board

                      Any genuinely good way to answer the "biggest weakness" question without sounding like a cliche. Anyone have any good examples?

                      I interview with this place about a week and a half ago. I think it went well and in the interview she said the next step would be a writing example, so I did that. Sent it to them the day it was due and haven't heard back since. She did say any next steps would be after thanksgiving since everyone was busy and their calendars full last week. I followed up on Monday with an email, but haven't heard back. Maybe it's taking awhile or should I try again end of week? I would at least like feedback.

                      I was promised a decision made by mid last week. I followed up on Thursday last week and got a response the update is now followed up with the hiring manager and their director and expect hear back by middle of next week. What should I be expecting if it’s delayed on promised update timeline from the hiring manager interview?
