Pros
My experience at Jackson has been nothing but great. I work on the sales desk and the two things I love most are the culture and advancement. The culture is part of the reason Jackson remains number 1 and there is such a clear. Direction of advancement you can’t help but get promoted. Last year alone I had several promotions. Truly a great place to build a foundation for your career
Cons
Depending on what you cover, the hours could be different than your typical 9-5

Pros
Good benefits package. Nice building and huge dining center with indoor/outdoor seating. On sight child care.
Cons
Difficult to get time off approved and have to bid for new work schedules every quarter. Micromanaging and managers are pushed to be more report driven instead of working with their team. Forced to complete multiple time management reports instead of concentrating on work being done.

Pros
Benefits, PTO and annual bonus
Cons
Work life balance is not there if you work in the Call Center. Shift bids are done every 6 months. If you are in operations for more than 2 years, it's nearly impossible to get out and transition to another department.

You have the ability to excel here and the management will support you every step of the way if you have the drive. Great culture and very good experience.

Some negatives is you have to pay for parking if you’re a commuter to the Zone location and sometimes they bring pizza in for everyone when they know I’m on a diet. All jokes aside this is a great place to work and I can’t really find any negatives.
Advice to Management
Keep supporting and investing time into workers who show the drive and passion to do something with their careers. Management truly shows passion in what they do and it is directly reflected through the workers at Jackson.
