The health insurance is the cheapest I've ever had. That's pretty much it.

Where do I start? The person who wrote that PCL stands for People Come Last is spot on. Here are a list of cons: - People Come Last unless you are the boss's favorite. - Unless you completely toe the company line, brown-nose constantly, & agree with everything management says, they won't like you. I've seen people with less experience get promoted over people with more experience just because they are the boss's favorites. - When management is done with you, they will treat you poorly to try to push you out. If you don't leave on their "push out" schedule, they will fire you (make sure you negotiate a good severance). - If you are a woman with children, this is not the place for you. They expect work to come first, 100% of the time. There is no work/life balance. All of management's wives are stay-at-home moms, so they expect the same from all women it seems. - Diversity is basically non-existent. Expect to see a lot of white males. - Forget about going to HR for anything - they are there to protect the company, not care about the employees. - If you are having any personal issues outside of work, make sure to not let it show at work because they really don't care about anything that's going on at home or with your health. - The share program is a joke. The offerings are way too expensive to purchase so you have to get a loan so it doesn't actually pay off for about 7 years because you have to pay down your loans. I've never heard of having to get a loan to make an investment. And they don't tell you this in your interview, they just make you think you're going to make all this extra money immediately. - You get no feedback on your work performance so you have no clue if you are doing a good job or not, until they just fire you out of nowhere. - Don't try to talk to your co-workers about anything other than work or you will get the dirtiest looks from management - it's all work all the time. No room for water cooler talk. - They preach that it's the "PCL family" - if that's true, this is one dysfunctional family.
