Pros

Good co-workers, products can be fun, decent benefits. Small company, lots of exposure and ability to have a lot of responsibility.

Cons

Company has changed completely over the past 2 years. Management used to care about the people, culture, and work environment. With the change in leadership, the change in culture came as well. Culture is not creative and collaborative, but rather hostile. Do not delete any emails, as you will normally have to cover yourself at some point as there is a game of finger pointing with most decisions made. Leadership is quick to criticize you if you have "failed" in their eyes. Leadership does not realize challenges in the marketplace, and has failed to innovate to keep pace with competition. The company does not and will not support departments with the necessary resources to drive the business. Increased responsibility over the job description is common, as you will wear MANY hats on most jobs within Signature Brands. With the resources being so streamlined, the work life balance is horrible. Do not count on ever taking a true vacation, as most of the time emails or calls will normally be made to you during your time off. Meetings and company off sites used to be in fun locations with true team building activities. This is no longer the case as most meetings are now in Ocala.

Pros

You get a paycheck every 2 weeks

Cons

Management gets preferential treatment and information, lots of lengthy closed door meetings. Very little opportunity for advancement unless you brownnose. 2-3% raise each year on average which doesn't keep up with cost of living. Benefits get downgraded every few years. Used to have stools in production at stationary positions, removed. Used to get a 5%( of your salary) 401K bonus at year end, gone. Health insurance used to be free, now you pay and it's a terrible health plan. Yearly bonuses come and go. Office personnel worked from home, then they dragged everyone back in for "collaboration". They hire a bunch of temps every holiday season and you never know what violence the temps will do so they have to hire security guards during the same period. Can't trust anybody there as there is a lot of gossip and people plotting to get you. Don't trust the anonymous surveys. Ownership is a bunch of slimeballs.
