Pros
Good salary & benefits compared to other companies. People are generally friendly. The Akron area is a good place to raise a family.
Cons
The company is relatively flat so there's not a lot of opportunity for advancement. Workload is very heavy & work/life balance can be difficult. Have had lots of turnover in brand marketing over the past few years that is finally stabilizing.
