Pros

Reasonable pay for the area, after all, this is not downtown Chicago. Management always has a good vision for the future and seeks to lead the industry for the benefit of the customer and company. I saw a con listed about small town location and mentality, but I see that as a pro. This company was founded with a family atmosphere and morals on the fringe of the south suburbs. Those morals are what made this company what it is today and has a great work environment and coworkers. As far as the location, it brings lots of jobs to the area including NW Indiana.

Cons

Being owned by investors now as opposed to individuals can take a bit of the personalization out of management, but that is progress and has been a means for our growth and stability.

Pros

The teammates that I worked with were generally really great. Decent opportunity for learning

Cons

The benefits were not great, 3 year vesting to get a 401k match, insurance was sub par, time off was below average. In addition to this the management team is having a lot of turnover along with getting rid of people systematically (or what feels targeted). This is following some acquisitions that could have been great but because the teams are all operating in silos with what feels like no cohesive direction from the senior leadership. The products that are being sold are very old feeling/looking with no real changes on the horizon. Pair this with high level executive leadership changes that are pointing to a potential sale of the company which likely will come with more changes and loss of employment.
