Pros

1) Director level and down are all good people (a small number of upper management are too) and great to work with. 2) Good pay and excellent benefits. 3) They don't force old people out (most of us are old people).

Cons

I cannot state this is true about all areas of the company, but for the division I work all stands true: 1) Zero room for advancement. Even when someone retires or dies, executive management refuses to backfill position. Simply spreads the responsibilities among others who are spread thin already. 2) Lack of investment in resources translates to lackluster systems, people performance and disappointing products. 3) Products strategy is 'if we build it, they will come'. Only reason we're making money and remain competitive is because of the generation that came before us who made this company/brand. 4) Majority of executive management are self-absorbed egotistical white males. 'Good ol' boys' is an understatement.

Pros

Almost everyone there were great to work with. Many very talented individuals in their field. I loved working with everyone from managment to the guys on the floor.

Cons

Some managment is a little outdated and prefer the old ways kepping some processes that need to be updated.

Pros

Company culture is highly dependent on your location, but as a company that was purchased by Snap-on, they do a good job making it still feel like a smaller "family" ran company, while getting the support of a larger company when it comes to investing in the property and benefits.

Cons

A lot of "corporate politics" to deal with in certain settings. Benefits are lacking for as large as the company is. (Better than smaller companies, but they could still improve).
